Review title: Now made in China, with poorer cutting performance
Product review: This is the second set of these HK Porter cable cutters I've owned, just bought through Amazon this week. The first set, bought maybe 20 or 30 years ago worked well.Two points. First, the tool is now made in China, with a somewhat poorer fit and finish. Still, it looked usable . . .Second point, looks are deceiving. It wouldn't cut 9/64" braided cable (just above 1/8" and well below the stated 3/16" capacity). All it did was gnaw at the strands. Even if I had the patience to gnaw my way through, the wires were separating and a clean cut would be impossible.Perhaps some get a tool that works or are using it on softer cable. I didn't; and can't recommend this tool as currently manufactured.
