Great Metal Shears
I bought these shears with very low expectations due to the price. I’ve always used the more expensive shears that are 4 times the price, and all I can say is wow. These preformed flawless and cut everything I needed. When the time comes to replace them I will definitely be purchasing these again!

Easy to use
I've only used it on thin sheet metal, but it works well so far.

Works well for a hand held device
It is quite a bit faster than using a cutoff wheel. However, if there is a moderate amount of bend in the sheet metal it doesn't do as well. You can get it cut but it requires a little more work.
The blade adjustment is. 075" for 20 guage sheet, but feeler guages don't have that. I used a tight .008" and it cuts what I need.
I learned that you have to start with the jaws against the sheet metal and be ready to move when you turn it on. It vibrates to much to start off your cut line.
I have cut several pieces of 20ga. steel and I am happy with it.

Like a knife through butter
Slices through metal like a knife through butter. It's a little difficult to control, which is why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

Nice Tool
First use was to cut up sheet metal from the outside of an old water heater. Worked great. Pros: quality tool. Cons: Blade adjustment takes care and time.
