If you're going to use these everyday buy Klein blue handle for another $15. I've had my blue Klein's for 3 years with almost daily use cutting wires & steel. Will last you forever(unless you cut live wire) and can cut nails without damaging cutting blade unlike these. Look at the reviews for these where cutting blades shatter after second use and spring breaks. Also able to cut larger things with traditional side cutters vrs most compound cutter (jaws don't open as wide)
Within a week, mine developed a significant amount of wobble from the compound pivots forward— a full 1/4". Although the jaws are aligned, mine don't cut any better than standard diagonal cutters of the same length. I reached out to crescent by phone and email and found them to be non responsive regarding their warranty. I decided to leave these at work for shared use, and they have lasted a year —still cutting ok, and no one has walked away with them.
$10-11 seems like the right price for a middling-quality hand tool with no warranty.

I wouldn't use them for that, these would be good for light duty stuff imo copper and aluminum. I believe garage door cable is stainless which isn't very soft stuff. They make cutters specifically designed for that…In fact I just saw those kind of cutters on here
Yah these are great for breaking down wire livestock fencing, snipping bicycle cable ends, down rigger lines, etc. I have these same ones and agree that for thicker wire like garage doors might do them in.
Bought these (with blue/gray handle) eons ago and they're still going strong so unless something's changed in the design or materials (which is entirely possible) this is a nice deal
Can anyone relate: as a person who is lazy and hates DIY most of the time besides to save money----Slickdeals has caused me to buy tools that I have no regular use for and sometimes not even sure how I would ever use the tool. But when the tool deal is soooo great you get suckered into buying. When Sears was in business I was getting almost free Craftsman tools and accessories. I even have Impact sockets and I don't even have air tools or a big enough compressor (always telling myself I might get one...one day). Sigh....
Deal for wire cutters seems to be gone now. Now priced over $21.
Yeah, I'm only seeing 3rd party sellers at $27. I guess this deal ..isn't.
For that kind of money, you can buy American made, which I try to do whenever i can. Something like these Channellocks. https://www.ebay.com/itm/325983562451

Why in the h*ll cant the listing even show consistent dimensions?!!!
Along with that:
Brand Crescent
Product Dimensions 7.6"L x 6"W
So, are these pliers 7.6-, 8-, or 9-inches long?!!!
I give-the-h*ll up!!!
