This is a cable shear designed for controlled cable cutting in electrical and mechanical work. Model Number \u003cstrong\u003e95 11 160 SBA\u003c\/strong\u003e. If you need a hand tool that stays compact but still handles real cable sizes, this is the kind of cutter that earns a spot in the bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe big detail here is the stated cutting capacity marked on the tool itself: \u003cstrong\u003eup to 15 mm diameter or 50 mm² for copper and aluminum\u003c\/strong\u003e. That gives you a clear idea of where this tool fits. It is meant for cable work, not general-purpose cutting. For installers and service techs, that matters because a tool made for the right material gives you a cleaner cut and better control than trying to force a standard plier or side cutter into cable work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThe 6-1\/4 inch format is part of the appeal. Smaller cable shears are easier to carry all day, easier to reach into panels and tighter spaces, and less awkward when you only need one dedicated cutting tool instead of a bigger two-handed cutter. The compact length also makes the Knipex 95 11 160 SBA StepCut Cable Shears a practical choice for punch lists, service calls, and trim-out work where space and mobility matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eBuild-wise, this tool uses an alloy steel blade with plastic-coated handles. That is a straightforward combination that makes sense for a daily-use cutting tool: durable cutting edges up front, slim coated grips in hand, and no extra bulk where you do not need it. The image also shows the tool is \u003cstrong\u003emade in Germany\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is relevant for buyers who look to Knipex for consistent fit, finish, and edge quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThis is not a multi-purpose cutter pretending to do everything. It is a purpose-built hand tool for cable work. If your work regularly involves copper or aluminum conductors, a dedicated cable shear saves time and gives you more predictable results than using a general cutting plier on the wrong material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eWho should buy it? Anyone who wants a compact Knipex cable cutter for regular electrical or mechanical service work and wants something lighter and easier to carry than a larger cutter. If your priority is clean cable cuts in a compact format, this is the right kind of tool. If you mainly cut mixed materials or need one tool for every possible job, you may want something more general-purpose, but that is not what this tool is trying to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003cdetails id=\"product-benefits\" class=\"acc\"\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompact Cable Cutting You Can Actually Carry\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"acc-body\"\u003e\n      \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n        \u003cdiv class=\"img\"\u003e\n          \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.anglera.com\/assets\/74d6ed76-fe0d-4d23-a9db-1f8749ca9ef2\/2026052174_1.jpg\" alt=\"Knipex 95 11 160 SBA StepCut Cable Shears shown in profile on a clean background, highlighting the compact cutting head, plastic-coated handles, and cable-cutting capacity markings for copper and aluminum work\" class=\"tnblock-img\"\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \u003cdiv class=\"copy\"\u003e\n          \u003cp\u003eThis is the kind of cutter that makes sense for techs who want a dedicated cable tool without carrying a full-size bulky cutter.
