RIDGID 23493 PC-1375ML Single Stroke Plastic Pipe and Tubing Cutter for 1/8" to 1-3/8" PVC, CPVC, PP, PEX, and PE, Scissor-Style Plastic Pipe Cutter with Multi-Layer Adapter

I'm someone who uses these cutters all the time for cutting pex piping. Until I purchased this product I had been using a cheaper cutter that required precision and sometimes multiple attempts until I got the right cut. Why is it important to get a cutter that gets the cut right the first time? Well, when you're rolling out tens of meters of piping for new construction it's not so much of a problem. But when you're making a repair on an existing line you'll get yourself in a bind if you end up cutting off too much pipe to get it right! And sometimes you're holding the cutter sideways and in certain angles that makes it hard to get a precise cut. With these Ridgid cutters, due to the design of the cutter and and the blade (on my other cutters the blade wasn't set so well -- which was half the cause of the issues) you get a great cut with no skill required. I also like that it doesn't ratchet. Never liked the ratchet ones.

Very sharp! I might need stitches after I forgot this was in my backpack. It unclipped itself and I sliced my finger on it blindly rifling through my backpack. 10/10 would buy again

So, the one star off is for a functionality issue. This thing works and cuts really well. But the latch that holds it close is... Not so good. It doesn't click into place or anything. It's clear they expect tension to hold it. Problem is what if it's in a tool bag and comes undone? And you reach in grasping for something? And your finger finds the blade? I didn't even realize I'd been cut until I saw the blood. There was a lot of that... So works great, good quality as far as I can tell, they need to do something about the latch. For my purposes, a rubber band works great.

I use these to get nice square cuts on my PEX tubing.. they work great!

I have been using this for 1" PVC, 1" irrigation hose and 1/2" vinyl hose with a 3/4" wall. All I can say is why didn't I find one of these sooner?! Much better than a razor blade and even better than my miter saw. You bring it along with you and do not need power. Works. Makes perfect straight CLEAN cuts with little force.

They cut well only complaint they open to wide on handles during one hand, over head ,standing on one foot operation

Good tool. It advertises that it's good for cutting multilayered hose. I bought it to cut nylon air brake hose and it does not do a good job at cutting it. Was disappointed in that respect but it is a quality tool.

This item is sturdy and well engineered and feels solid. Unfortunately you need superhuman strength to use it and if you are cutting a lot well good luck with that! I went to Home Depot and saw the Husky tool it has ratcheting and slices through clean as butter..what a great tool feels like cheap crap but works 100 times better than the Ridgid. The Husky comes with a lifetime warranty so I guess that's good Cut about 30 pipes with ease.
