Worked very well for a tight close cut.

Great Product!
Awesome cutters! I am a plumber so I cut pipe a lot and these are amazing when you run into small spaces that regular cutters won’t work in. I highly recommend these and they are very durable and great quality!

it's okay
Cons:- Not taking off a star for this because the product is advertised to cut soft metals like aluminum and copper and I needed them to cut off some length off of my 4130 chromoly steel material bike handlebars. I've managed to successfully use this cutter for one set of chromo handlebars but do not for the second set I'm trying to cut. I'd assume I've dulled the blade.- Minus one star because it is way too hard to find info on how to replace the blade. No, I know where the replacement blade is located and removing that is just unscrewing a screw - really simple, but how do I remove the dulled blade I'm trying to replace?? I've tried removing the "clip" that holds the pin in but it's not working. I've searched online and checked the manufacturer website, and while I do appreciate that they offer a blown up diagram of the parts and seem to sell each part separately, no info on how to remove the blade in use...Pros:- Relatively easy and intuitive use- Well designed, cuts straight and doesn't wiggle around if you seat the tubing right- lightweight and doesn't take up space- good cost-point

Honestly thought it wouldn’t work
This nifty little steel pipe cutter does the job. I bought some HomeDepot EMT Conduit steel pipes to cut. And this little monster was able to slice through this 1”, albeit, hallow steel pipe with ease. Best to put your pipes on top of two chairs. Clamp the cutter onto the pipe, and don’t clamp it too tightly. Just enough that you know it’s gripping. Now spin the cutter around until it feels loose, tighten it up a bit, and do another round. Keep tightening as you make more revolutions around the pipe. Keep doing this until it cuts the pipe. It’s that easy! I’ve cut 10 pipes so far, and it’s still working.
