Overview
The Knipex 95 05 155 SBA is a compact cutter built from stainless steel with glass fiber reinforced plastic handles for grip. It ships as a single tool weighing 0.31 pounds, sized for cutting soft and multi strand cable in tight spaces.
Knipex is a German toolmaker with a reputation built on pliers and cutters used daily by electricians and technicians, and the 95 05 155 sits in its cutter lineup at a compact 155 mm size. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion better than plain carbon steel blades, useful in damp job sites. Its 4.8 star average across 1,845 reviews, plus roughly 1,000 recent purchases a month, reflects steady demand from trade buyers rather than a one-off spec.

- 4.8 stars across 1,845 ratings
Who it's for
Electricians and technicians who need a small, corrosion resistant cutter for soft cable and want a brand with a long trade reputation. Not the tool to reach for on hardened wire or heavy cable, since nothing in the listing claims that capacity.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Stainless steel resists corrosion
- Compact at 0.31 lb for one handed use
- Strong 4.8 star average over 1,845 reviews
- Ships as a single tool, not a set
- No blade length or cutting capacity listed
Performance notes
Stainless steel blades hold an edge and resist rust better than untreated carbon steel, which matters for a tool that may see damp or outdoor conditions. The glass fiber reinforced plastic handles add grip without adding much weight, keeping the whole cutter under a third of a pound.
