Lindstrom and Erem (owned by Weller now) are the best. It's really hard to decide between them. They are not cheap, but I have had a pair of Erem flush cutters since 1980 and they still perform. Back then we had the Lindstrom cutters at work which got treated badly. They didn't care. I ended up with the Erem by way of advise from our chief engineer at the time. A few years back I found a lot of 5 Erem 777e's for $50 from a jewelry school that had gone out of business. I jumped on the deal like a hungry tiger. I've given 2 away, but with my original and the 3 I have left from that purchase I have enough to last my family for generations ... well, a longish time. |

I have schmitz flush cutters. They're really good, probably lasting for a few years. Not too expensive. Made from top quality steel. https://www.schmitz-pliers.com/collections/small |

I use the Japanese Engineer brand NZ-05 cutters. https://www.engineertools-jp.com/nz0305 They are very precise and very good quality. I only use them on plastic and copper etc and they last me years at a time. They are easily my favourite and most used cutters by far. |
