The KNIPEX CoBolt S Compact Bolt Cutter with Blade Recess is designed for cutting thicker materials with ease. The cutters feature a compact size, measuring 6-1/4" in length, and provide high cutting power, easily cutting bolts, nails, and rivets up to 11/64" in diameter. It has a slim head for better access to confined areas, a strong lever action mechanism that allows the user to exert less effort when using the cutter, and below the joint is a gripping surface for pulling wires with a diameter from 3/64". In addition, it has laser-cut edges on the blades which prevent material being cut from slipping.
