Proferred Tools Straight Cut Snips are designed for the simple straight cutting and trimming of a variety of metals. This style of snips are often used for cutting straight lines and square objects. This particular style of straight blades don„¢t allow for any curves. This tool is designed with an all metal construction, as both the blades and handles are made from drop-forged Chrome-Molybdenum Alloy steel. This increases the tin snip„¢s strength and makes cutting less strenuous on the user. Aviation snips have a compound action which gives them a mechanical advantage over standard tin snips. This means they are more comfortable to use for longer periods of time.
