The KNIPEX 9" StepCut XL Cable Cutter, No. 95 11 225, features dual cutting edges for easier cutting. The tool cuts solid copper or aluminum cables up to 2 AWG, stranded cables up to 2/0 AWG, and fine-stranded cables up to 4/0 AWG. Its front cutting edge is used for the gradual cutting/nibbling of larger cables, and the back cutting areas position the cable closer to the joint for additional leverage.
