Cut thicker sheet and wire sprues with precision using these robust stainless steel jeweller's shears.

What it does

These shears are engineered for demanding bench tasks, offering superior leverage for controlled cuts on tougher materials. The short, precisely angled stainless steel blades concentrate force at the cutting point, allowing you to snip through thicker sheet metal and wire with less effort. The offset handle design acts as a lever, amplifying your hand's force for a clean, decisive cut where lighter snips would falter.

How to use it

  • Position material firmly between the short blades.
  • Squeeze handles with deliberate, controlled pressure.
  • Wipe clean and store safely after use.

Who it's for

Essential for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and serious hobbyists working with non-ferrous metals. These shears excel where standard scissors or fine-tip cutters struggle, making quick work of wire sprues and thicker gauge sheet. A reliable alternative to pricier specialised cutters for many common bench tasks.

Common questions at the bench

Will these mark soft silver wire?
Our flat-, snipe-, and round-nose pliers have polished interior jaws — they will not mark cleanly annealed precious-metal wire when used with normal grip pressure. For absolutely no-mark work on finished pieces, wrap the jaws with masking tape or nylon-jaw covers (sold separately).
Can these cut hardened wire?
Tungsten-carbide-tipped cutters in this collection handle hardened steel up to spring temper. Standard side cutters are for non-ferrous (silver, gold, copper, brass) up to half-hard. Check the product spec for the cutting capacity.
What is the difference between parallel and standard pliers?
Standard pliers pivot on a single point — the jaws scissor open and grip strongest at the tip. Parallel-action pliers stay perfectly parallel through the full opening, giving equal grip pressure across the whole jaw face. Parallel models are higher-precision (better for wire-wrapping and dead-soft annealed wire) but cost more.
Do they come spring-loaded?
Most of our bench pliers ship spring-loaded for one-handed operation. Where the spring is removable, the product description notes it. Spring tension is set for all-day comfort, not maximum grip.
