    • The only way to cut fiber cement siding
Style: Siding Shear / 6.5 Amp. Pattern Name: Cutter
I bought this tool as used on Amazon because I really thought it was going to be disappoint. The tool came in perfect condition,not a scratch on it. Just the box was damaged so I saved about $100. Then when I tried it out on the fiber cement siding it worked perfectly. Cuts are fast and clean with no dust and no noise. ... show more

    • Cuts great
Style: Siding Shear / 6.5 Amp. Pattern Name: Cutter
Bought this to do custom cuts on a modern home. I can't speak for long term durability, but I can speak to the product's usability. Pros: It works right out of the box, and works well. Easy to cut a straight line in the material. When the material is supported, you get minimal end cut blow out and chipping. The cut is smooth, but not saw-smooth. Certainly butt-joint smooth. It makes trimming small pieces much less dusty. A life saver when you're 30' in the air, doing cement board facia on a home. No handing the sheet down, cutting it, handing it back up through the skylight. not too heavy. cutter head seems really robust, not a cheap plastic housing like on some products. Quiet. No dust. None. Will cut very small pieces with out blowing them up. You can trim 1/2" off a 10' sheet and still get a nice edge. The pop-up or lay flat tool hook. Not fancy, but the fact you can pop this down when you put the tool in a bucket or a holster is really nice. Pop it back up when you just want to hang it on a sawhorse. A little thing, but very handy. Company is local to the Seattle area (I like this, but I'm in Seattle). Cons (minor complaints about working with Cement board would be more correct): The kerf is about 1/4" thick. I don't know if this can be helped. Minor complaint. The 'curl' from the kerf bends up and right back onto your line when your cutting. Not a huge deal, but it does make the line hard to see sometimes. Doesn't do tight angles or arcs. I call this a Con, but this is certainly not the tool for that job. Get the JigSaw blades for fancy cuts. sometimes a small piece of siding gets stuck in the jaws making it hard to start the next cut. Just poke it out with a nail and you're good. If you don't care about the start of the next cut, just push the tool onto the work and the chunk will kick out. Makes the start a bit messy, but no big. ... show more

    • Excellent addition
Style: Siding Shear / 4.8 Amp. Pattern Name: Cutter
Finally ready to review this tool, since I have put it to the test. I must say it is an excellent addition to my tool collection. Cuts very precisely and with no dust. It can be tricky to get perfect Angel to allow for a continuous “peel” and to prevent bulging at cut site, but so love this tool despite operator learning curve. The peel can, at times, fall over the cut mark. ... show more

    • Great for Hardie Backer
Style: Siding Shear / 4.8 Amp. Pattern Name: Cutter
I purchased these shears to cut Hardie backer board for three rooms (19 sheets). I cut mostly 1/4 inch and although it didn't recommend it I did cut some 1/2 inch (.42). The 1/4 inch cut like a hot knife through warm butter only slower. Lines are easy to follow in either direction except for the curl that comes around every eight inches or so. You can travel fast or slow as the trigger is variable speed. The tool is fairly heavy although most all the weight rest on the material while using. As long as you keep the tool resting flat on the cement board and cut fairly straight it cuts very smooth and produces very clean edge with almost no dust. It is only as noisy as a 1/2 drill and very easy on your body. Slam dunk for 1/4 material and although it will cut the 1/2 it is much slower and they do make one for the thicker material. For round holes and lines not straight buy a Bosch jigsaw blade ($10) for cement board and an oscillating jigsaw (harbor freight $30 before 20% off). After cutting 19 sheets of varying thickness cement board the shears show almost no sign of wear and preform as when new. If your body is beat up, older or you just don't like a noisy room full of cement board dust these shears are worth every penny. They made the hardest part of the project so much easier. Highly Recommend these shears! ... show more

    • Indespensible!
Style: Siding Shear / 6.5 Amp. Pattern Name: Cutter
Like most of the reviews, I've found this tool to be indispensable to working with Hardi-Plank. It makes smooth cuts with absolutely no dust provided finished side is down (that is at the bottom of the scissors), and with the help of a 6" speedi-square and a little practice you can make perfectly square cuts. The only thing needed is a little "rasping" of the cut edge to remove some of the remaining loose fibers. I just use a small piece of Hardi-Plank for that. The little curlicues of cut material make a mess but the small bits broken bits get eaten by the grass. I raked most of them up but the smaller bits disappeared into the grass in a couple of weeks. Cutting "notches" in the planks is difficult if not impossible to do neatly with this tool. For that I still use a 4.5" grinder with a diamond wheel. A little dust but nothing like you would get by making every cut on a siding job using a diamond wheel. I just hold my breath for a bit and I'm old anyway... I also still rely on the old skillsaw/diamond blade for trim boards. So back to the tool: Pros: Runs very smooth, variable speed trigger very linear. Powerful, well made - quality and performance you might expect from something like a Bosch power tool. Blades can be removed and turned around and changed side/side, the combinations giving 4 new sets of cutting edges before needing replacement. I've done the entire 3,000 sq ft house with no more wear than a little polishing action on the existing cutting surfaces. Con (only one): Like other reviewers I've found the cord placement at the bottom of the trigger handle troublesome when making long ripping cuts. I have a set of sheetmetal shears of similar design and the cutter head rotates to different positions on the drill motor which eliminates this problem - and these are from Harbor Freight and cost less than $50!
