I managed just under a minute, any longer and the laptop was likely to go out of the window.

Not watched the vid, but can tell you Snap On sidecutters dont last very long at all before going blunt!

Watched the whole thing. Voice was a touch annoying but the results were interesting. Snap-on appear to be a waste of money.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

"When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die! You don't know who's children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the very beginning: SIT DOWN AND TALK!"
I liked the way he used a pair of grips to "avoid it becoming a projectile" ... then forgot in one case and the cut end does indeed fly off like a bullet
It also says "US vs German" but the majority of the tools were actually Chinese.
Irwin looked best buy to me.

has anyone got any of the pivoting side cutters or I think they call them high leverage
Plus 1 to irwin, bought a Knipex pivoting side cutters that have lasted well , also have a Stanley one which has also lasted for years
Gave up buying snap on years ago, mainly because of the cost and to be honest other makes like britool I found are just as good and still have them some 30 x years later
Was also surprised how good some of the halford professional range tools were
Just looked, christ they certainly weren't that much
