My toolbox is full of Knipex for a reason. Really can’t fault them.
I know you said side cutters, but for electrical work my first choice is almost always my knipex combination pliers.
I wouldn’t use these for mig wire though. If it’s definitely side cutters you want, then I’d still go with Knipex if it was my choce.
Another one for Knipex, have one pair that are over 25 years old, bit lose, and another new pair for "Best"Knipex all the way.
