Review: Magnifica cesoia taglia cavi knipex - La cesoia è rifinita perfettamente e ovviamente taglia in modo impeccabile lasciando la sezione troncata assolutamente pulita. La cerniera è precisissima e scorrevole il giusto e non ha intoppi. Inoltre è esente dal minimo gioco radiale o assiale e comunque ha pur sempre un sistema per recuperare l'eventuale tolleranza che si potrebbe verificare negli anni. La parte interna delle lame è lavorata con la precisione della testata di un motore e naturalmente i taglienti sono affilatissimi. I manici sono gli ormai consueti giallorossi garantiti per 1000V secondo la norma EN 60900 (o CEI EN IEC 60900) con un buon grip sulla zona gialla ed tocco liscio sulla rossa. I due paramani sporgenti servono appunto ad evitare pericolosi scivolamenti in avanti delle mani per evitare di toccare l'acciaio sotto tensione e non, come credono alcuni, a proteggere le mani dagli urti. Utensile a mio avviso da avere sempre in valigetta e indispensabile a chi fa l'elettricista o comunque a chi lavora nel campo dell'elettricità.
