Tool Identity

The Knipex 76 01 125 is a 5-inch diagonal cutting plier made from vanadium electric steel. It is designed for cutting wire and small-gauge metal parts in electromechanical work. The oval nose profile and plastic-coated handles provide a secure grip during repetitive cutting tasks. This hand tool arrives in new condition.

Setup Check

Verify that the 13/16-inch jaw length and 9/64-inch jaw width suit the wire diameters you typically cut. Ensure the oval nose geometry fits the access space inside your assemblies or enclosures. Confirm the 5-inch overall length matches your preference for leverage versus manoeuvrability. The plastic-coated handles are not insulated for live electrical work.

Fit and Alternatives

This plier suits technicians and hobbyists who need a compact, sharp side cutter for general wiring and small-component trimming. Buyers who require insulated handles for voltage-rated safety should look elsewhere. Users needing greater cutting capacity for thicker cable or hardened wire will need a larger or specialised model. The tool is not intended for bolt turning or gripping operations.
