Yep. I think this is the only time I am not returning a wrong order or being disappointed getting a different item than what was listed lol Thanks again for turning me on to these snips.

Well they came in and I got a friendly shock when I opened the box to realize I did not get what I ordered. Instead of the bessey snips shown in the picture I got the Erdi stamped ones I was looking for. Big smile to my face then. First impression very nice quality, the blades come together...

I just ordered bessey D29SS-BE lefts and rights. I was looking for the erdi stamped version from the bessey site as its a little more Americanized in the handle shape. could only find europoan vendors though.

I have never really had luck with wiss. I have always used midwest and klein. If the klein journeyman series with the curved handle could cut heavy gauge like the special hardness blue handled midwest snips I would be in heaven lol

Thanks for the Info Monte. Its been a big help, nice pictures as well.

Have you had an actual use out of any of the snips listed?

I did not now about the Gedore snips just the 3 I mentioned now I will have to look at them.

So both are very good then I take it?

Hello everyone. Not a mechanic or body man by trade. I work for a general contractor. I do a lot of flat roof metal copping cap and metal roofs. Any ways has any one ever used any of these snips? All three brands claim to cut up to 1.8 mm or 14 gauge cold rolled steel that is pretty heavy...
