These 160mm heavy-duty shears provide precise cutting power for thick sheet and wire, essential for demanding jewellery making tasks.

What it does

Engineered for consistent performance, these shears leverage their wide, precisely ground blades to slice cleanly through tougher materials. The robust pivot screw allows for fine-tuning blade tension, ensuring optimal cutting action. The angled handle design raises your hand, offering superior clearance from the workpiece and improved visibility during intricate cutting operations. This ergonomic advantage reduces fatigue on repetitive tasks.

How to use it

  • Position material between the blades.
  • Apply steady, firm pressure to cut.
  • Wipe clean after use and store closed.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for professional jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths who frequently work with substantial gauge sheet or wire. This robust shear replaces weaker alternatives, offering a reliable solution for tasks where precision and force are equally important. Also suitable for experienced craftspeople and serious hobbyists.

Edward C. ★★★★★

I was cutting 16-gauge silver sheet yesterday and these shears sliced through it like butter. The wide blades give you excellent leverage without bending the metal.

Riley ★★★★★

The bent handles make a huge difference when I'm cutting through 18 gauge sterling for hours. Blades stayed sharp through a whole batch of cuff blanks, no twisting or chewed edges. Way sturdier than the cheap pair I had before.

Julian F. ★★★★★

I was worried 160mm would be too small for the 1mm brass sheet I work with, but these slice through it without me having to squeeze hard at all. The wide blades also handle 12 gauge wire cleanly, no chewed edges like my old pair left behind.
