Title: SwissTool Wire Cutter Video!
Post by: Leatherman123 on June 04, 2008, 10:27:44 PM: Well, I was watching videos on youtube and I stumbled across this- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pVYhdiN2Fk The SwissTool cuts all the wire with ease besides stranded wire!

Post by: MultiMat on June 07, 2008, 04:30:23 AM: I was waiting for your video of a Surge cutting through some Rebar like it was butter :P :D . It would be interesting to see how quick a Surge could do the same test.

Post by: Leatherman123 on June 07, 2008, 04:31:46 AM: The SURGE could probably cut all of that wire with the hard wire cutter no problem. But, the SURGE will also cut the stranded wire cutter with the stranded wire cutter! :)

Must be related to LM123 trying to disprove Swiss Tools superior over ALL other,
even the blessed "Surge". :pok:

Post by: scrappy on June 11, 2008, 01:23:12 AM: I was cutting the foil duct off a dryer and the little wire in it damaged my swiss tool pretty bad. I don't have the tool any more or I would post pics. I have used the cutters and they are good but this suprised me.

Title: Re: SwissTool Wire Cutter Video!
Post by: Styerman on June 15, 2008, 05:21:46 AM: The wire in that , foil backed duct is low end spring steel . It will screw up dedicated wire cutters . Best cut with shears .

Post by: josekym on June 29, 2008, 01:19:51 PM: Yup! Stranded wire really makes my multi-tools' wire-cutters bind... I've had the same experience with Victorinox SwissTool, Gerber Multi-Plier and Leatherman Charge while cutting thin gauge, stranded wire used for electricals. I had to use shears instead. ;)
