 Not for Pad Locks or Master Locks November 21, 2009
BrooklynBet (Brooklyn, NYC)
FYI, if your getting this bolt cutter to remove padlocks/master locks don't bother. This tool cannot cut through any kind of carbon or hardened steel.
Would have definitely returned the item if I didn't mar the tool while trying to clip an old lock.

This was far cheaper than a comparably sized tool at the home centers and seems to be very similar in quality. Well, hard to tell the quality, really, without using it much more and I do expect it to last 10+ years with my light use. I needed to cut off a Brinks padlock (same size as a standard master lock padlock). This bolt cutter went through it very easily. I am sure it could cut something even larger and stronger.

I purchased this bolt cutter to replace another cheap (imported) bolt cutter that had failed. This imported cutter appears well made, and appreciating its low cost, may be a good value if it lasts any amount of time. I have much better bolt cutters (that cost fully 4 to 5 times as much as this Fuller product), and use those better cutters when the situation calls for them. The big question is when one encounters hardened materials...tries to cut them with an imported cutter, only to end up chipping a cutting edge.
No one should be surprised in buying this bolt cutter...you pay for what you get. If you're only cutting mild steel items (chain, small rebar, etc.) this cutter should be more than adequate.
