Alternative to snap on cutters

Hey it's the truth! They're about to that point where you'd give them to your toddler to go along with his plastic Black and Decker pretend tool set.

I seem to have acquired several MAC cutters over the past 10 years or so... Junk. I too have seen other China made specials outperform the MAC ones I can't warranty anymore. The Snap-on ones I have are good, quality is there. Knipex seems a bit better...

Personally I never buy anything from Mac or Matco. I'm just not impressed. I have a vast selection of branded items in my toolbox at the hangar. Knipex pliers are hands down the best. I don't care for Snap On pliers (except the 808). I find they're usually too bulky for tight areas on aircraft.
