ABSTRACT:
An improved all-way offset snips with full width wire cutter has bosses through which first and second blade members are pivotably connected for rotation about an axis perpendicular to the pivot bosses. The blade members have extended offset cutting surfaces with respect to the pivot bosses to permit the cutting of irregular shapes, particularly sharp curves and especially small circles, including opposing circles of about 2.0" to 2.5" diameters. The cutting surfaces are rotatable between an open position and a closed position for cutting the sheet material therebetween. The pivot bosses and the cutting surfaces are adapted for removal of material therefrom to permit resharpening of the offset snips while maintaining the offset of the cutting surfaces. The shanks of the blade members are also provided with wire cutting means, preferably a pinch cutter capable of being a limit stop for limiting rotation of the first and second blade members. Also, an improved handle configuration with improved toggle means provides greater power.
