I got tired of cables fraying and decided to get a better cable cutter. The normal cable cutters where the blades come together donāt work very well with mutli-strand cables like bike cables. The type that works better has more of a scissors action where the blades cross each other rather than come together. After shopping around, I ended up with the CyclingDeal cutters off of Amazon. The tool cuts cables well, have a look:
I believe this tool is a clone of the Pedroās cable cutter which is a clone of a Felco cutter.
Specs
Hardened steel
Spring loaded
Nice grip
Lock holds closed
7.5ā long
274 grams
Made in Taiwan
Itās a sturdy tool that should work fine for a long time. While I went with CyclingDeal, I believe the same tool is labeled under many names including Muzata, Sanuke, Cozysmart, Cal Hawk, Zoostlissā¦ Pretty sure they are all the same tool.
Itās cheap relative to other cutters and works well cutting cables so Iām giving it a 5 out of 5 gnome rating. Get yours on Amazon:
Frugal Average Bicyclist 
I buy Park Tool needle nose pliers for precisely this reason. They are the only thing I’ve found that cut bicycle cables well.
