"Pretty solid tool" - Jacob 9/12/2023
★★★★☆
"Works well for the occasion big job. I built my own pole build and cut up a bunch of rebar for the footers. Definitely takes some muscle, but did hundreds of cuts on both #5 and #4 grade 60 rebar. It bends much easier than it cuts (it really is more of a break than a cut). If I did this professionally, I’d definitely buy a quality electric cutter/bender. For the occasional large DIY job this is great." - Verified Purchase
