Someone told me to get these so my edges are better for my new projects instead of having to file each wire. So my husband ordered them for me while we were on our honeymoon. I thought they created rounded ends but they just cut clean across. That's helpful but I don't understand the purpose of the hole. Still trying to find something online that explains all the uses of this thing. XD Maybe it's more basic than I though. Still...new toy! <3 #flushcutter #doubleflushcutter #wirewrappingtools #tool #tools #newtoy #artist #crafter #crafting (at http://www.thewellandspindle.com)
