My husband uses them for his vinyl siding business and they work great! Super sharp! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Pair of Snips *by 2***R on January 25, 2019* Bought these to cut double lap vinyl siding and they work great! I have not tried cutting metal with them (and probably won't because I want to keep them sharp), but I don't see why they would not cut thin gauge trim aluminum as the description states. The grip is pretty big, so may give some trouble if you have smaller hands, but still workable. Rubber on the handles is nice and the overall fit and finish is great just as always from Malco. ## Frequently Bought Together - Malco MV12 Andy Combination Snip for Vinyl Cutting, NA - Vinyl Siding Removal Tool with Extra Long Handle- Steel Blade Vinyl Non-Slip Grip Handle for Installation and Removal Tool Avoid Damaging Vinyl Siding Tool (1) - Malco SL5 9 in.
