Product description
Midwest Snips, made in the USA, forged blade offset model aviation snips are the world's best! We offer three different blade pattern models and two blade hardness options in this product category as well as two tradesmen sets. These models perform superior to respective model ASME Performance Requirements. Our offset model aviation snips are "The Sheetmetal Tradesman's Choice" because they are truly the easiest models to use in a variety of sheetmetal cutting applications. The offset blade pattern flows material away from the blades. This allows the snip to move forward without interference when making cuts through long sheets. It also allows the snip to cut tighter curves than other blade pattern models. The left and right blade pattern models cut the tightest curves while the straight blade pattern offers a slightly longer length of cut. Features New KUSH'N-POWER Grips.

Reviewed in Canada on July 29, 2019Verified PurchaseJe suis un travailleur de la construction et je me serre de mes ciseau à tôle très très fréquemment. J’ai utilisé plusieurs modèle au paravant et les midwest sont de loin la paire que je préfère. Habituellement je change de paire tous les 4 mois environ et avec les midwest je peux les garder 6 à 8 mois durant. Leur point fort : durable, bout des ciseaux pointu, le prix!. Pour conclure si vous avez pris le temps de lire ce commentaire c’est que vous avez besoin d’une bonne paire de ciseaux pour travailler et vous allez voir qu’elles font le travail comme on dit.
- Reviewed in Canada on October 24, 2019Verified PurchasePicked these up as another great Warehouse deal and can't be more pleased with both the left and the right offset snip. I find that the offset is at a decent angle and the spring recoils enough to use the entire length of the blade which save on time when your doing extended periods of work. I've put these snips through the paces and the edge it holding up very well and the snips haven't loosed so they cut nice and true. I'm very happy and would recommend to everyone.
- Reviewed in Canada on June 25, 2023Verified PurchaseMidwest and Wiss are the best in the game👍🏼
- Reviewed in Canada on September 28, 2019Verified PurchaseI have bad hands .. I was looking for tin snips that did not take a lot of pressure to work ... DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Yes there is cheaper ... but if you do not want to fight with the cut .. this is what you want.
- Reviewed in Canada on November 28, 2024Verified PurchaseRight from day 1 they were not that great and were really hard to cut anything with. When doing turns they don't give a nice edge either. They are strong when cutting through thick corners. Overall I probably wouldn't busy these again.
- Reviewed in Canada on March 14, 2022Verified PurchaseAfter switching to this brand I can never go back to any other I’ve tried.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the best snips I’ve used
Verified PurchaseExcellent snips. By far the best pair of snips I’ve ever owned. Been using snips to cut cladding metal for 20 years and how I haven’t come across these I’ll never know. Shipping from USA to UK next to nothing and delivered sooner than stated. Purchasing my second pair after I’ve finished writing this. 10/10
