Smooth heavy duty cutters
4.0
Nice and smooth right out of the package. Cut nicely and had great leverage. Could be a little less bulky but over all they were good.

I Have been given a great opportunity from Klein tools. I am a member of Klein Crusaders and I have been given a pair of 9” journeyman heavy-duty diagonal-cutting pliers for free. With additional incentives for a honest review of this product.
At first receiving the pliers the seemed to be well built. They needed to be broke in just like most tools. Right from the start I noticed a gap in the cutting edge. That gap makes it difficult to cut small stranded wire half the time leaving a strand to two uncut. If you need to cut nails or screw it will do it. Anything smaller and there is to much effort. #kleintools #kleincrusaders

Review of Klein Tools 9" Journeyman Heavy-Duty Diagonal-Cutting Pliers (Model J2000-59)
I've been an Electrician for about 12 years now and I'm always looking for tools to make my job easier. Klein Tools is the preferred hand tool brand among professionals in the Electrical and Cabling Industries (and for good reason), so when they come out with a new tool I tend to pay attention. Let me just say, these cutters filled a hole in my tool bag that I never knew I had. Before receiving these, I carried both a 6" and 8" pair of diagonal cutters in my "essentials" bag. I keep several sizes of bolt cutters on my work truck for anything that's too large for my diagonal cutters. Well, these have saved me quite a few trips out to the truck and back to grab the bolt cutters, and time is money. They cut through almost anything you throw at them with ease. Nails, screws, wire, ACSR all cut like butter. I even use them to cut 1/4" threaded rod (something none of my other hand tools could hope to accomplish). They're not exactly revolutionary, but they do anything I would have used my 8" cutters for with greater ease due to the extra leverage, with the added bonus of being able to cut through larger objects. The cutting blades are much longer as well which gives you the ability to cut more all at once. I love the feel of these cutters. They have similar weight and ergonomics to a quality pair of Lineman's pliers, with the extra comfort afforded by Klein's Journeyman grips. It's a bit different from the more traditional rounded handles found on smaller diagonal cutters, but a welcome change. The angled blade design makes them fantastic for pulling nails and cable staples, as well a making flush cuts against a flat surface. These are just a great all-around pair of diagonal cutters that have become my go-to daily pair. The only reason I get a smaller pair out anymore is if these are too big to fit in a small spot. Made in the USA, I expect these cutters to be the last I'll ever need. #kleintools #kleincrusaders

Heavy duty
5.0
These pliers are as big and heavy duty as they come. They cut through heavy gague wire that other diagonals struggle with like its effortless. I highly recommend these if you are cutting nails, #6 awg or bigger, and bx on a regular basis. It will save your hands in the long run.

I really like the feel of these pliers. Much more leverage than the standard diagonal cutters. They feel great in my hand, and used them to cut #2 aluminum today with ease. They were stiff out of the package, but I expected that. They earned a place in my tool bag for sure.
