Canoe,
Does the ratchet come completely away or do you have to thread the cable through?

What thickness of cable will they cut Andy?
i think 8 bits of 10mm T&E was the most ive tried it with. doesnt get used much - my other cutters will easily go through a 35mm single or 16mm twin
They're expensive , we had some for cropping 120mm and 185mm,s , worth it if you're doing a lot of that stuff. Someone nicked ours and I've not replaced them.

As a result of my 'Clinical Obsession' for tools I have
CPC version....I have used this to cut [i think] 300 sq mm trirated singles
2 x 'parrot beak' cutters upto 400mm
I also had one off a bloke on ebay....big enough to take your arm off. Pile of carp....broke mid job on a sub-station contract. Used the CPC one to finish the job with no problems. {did not have the parrot beaks at that time}
So, yes, the CPC one is fine.............. :coat

I Have used the Wieldmullers, on a job to cut 90mm 2 core , feeds from a UPS for the signalling equipment in st pancras,
Much easier than the long handled "Lopers" that you end up smashing your fingers together on

no tell a lie it was not the weildmullers......... they had a red handle, these belonged to the company i worked for then,
Most of weildmullers stuff is good, i use their auto strippers and thier all in one stripping and ferruling tool, with ferrules on a bandolier
