Always borrow my mates Park cutters but would like to be more self-sufficient.

Apart from Park, can anyone recommend decent cable cutters?

Thanks.

Knipex are good gear/brake cable cutters, not for gear/brake outers though.

TBH Park quality is probably going to cost Park prices and is worth paying for IMO.

just FYI, I have the Park ones and really wouldn’t recommend them. They don’t really cut gear cable well unless too tight to close 🙁

My Shimano ones are about 10 years old and still give a good clean cut. I use them on cables, outers and brake hoses

I have been useing some knipex ones and they are fine for both inner and outer but can’t find the same ones anymore
Mine are 95 61 190
Had them for years

For work not been at all impressed with the last few sets of park ones
And have just ordered up some SRAM ones to try

I’ve had a set from bikehut for 10yrs now as above used on cables outers and hoses. Still sharp as and look like they’ve never been used.

I’ve got some x-tools one and they’re absolutely fine. For a lot of things, paying the Park tax isn’t really worth it.

Superstar ones here for a year or so.
Good cutters with a handy pointy thing to open out the ends.

CK Cable cutters from Screwfix. Mine were able to trim mudguard stays. I don’t think bike tool suppliers have a monopoly on how to cable.

Park & Pro both with 20% off and free delivery from my LBS

Pretty sure it’s the IceTools ones I have. Can’t fault them really.
