Editorial Reviews
Product Description

The Super Nibbler is just the ticket for cutting sheet metal up to 3/64" thick. Extremely narrow head design allows cuts in hard-to-reach areas, yet still features a safety guard to prevent flying splinters. 10 1/4" overall.

Kevin M. Smith Said: Its ok. ( Mar. 7th 2009 )
It will cut through a certain guage of steel. Its hard to cut, but it should be expected when doing it manually. My only grevience with the product is that the handle starts to stick with only a limited amount of cuts. Also the design of the handle does not form to the hand well so its easy to get hand soars.
H. Halverson Said: Bessey D23 nibbler ( Jan. 13th 2009 )
This is a great well built tool, that with thoughtful use could last a lifetime...Although I use it for aluminium and copper it seems strong enough for heavier steel.
C. Moore Said: Self-Opening? ( Jun. 22nd 2008 )
This was advertized as self opening but after a liberal oiling it still sticks shut. Maybe it take some use to loosen it up. I have not actually used it for a job yet because I want to practice on a piece of scrap Al first. Looks like it should work as advertised.
C. Stahl Said: Good tool ( Feb. 8th 2008 )
Tool is well made and work as it should. What would you expect, its a Bessey?
Jim Larsen Said: It does OK, but not the best all around nibbler ( Jul. 20th 2007 )
I bought this identical tool at a discount tool store that specializes in Asian import tools. The regular list price was $6.99 and it was on clearance for $5.00. It is actually not a nibbler. It should be called a sheer. It sheers a strip of metal rather than nibbling out little pieces. It does straight lines and curves just fine, but it cannot make a 90 degree turn like a nibbler can. The cutter on mine is a loose fit in the jaws. I don't know if they are all that way or if mine is defective. The result is that it turns the edge of the metal along the cut. I have to do a little hammering on the piece when I am done to get it flat again. I have used it to fabricate parts from aluminum sheet metal and it is meeting my needs. But I think I want the Klein tool next time.
