I found a great price on a set of three snips from Harbor Frieght. They are Central Pneumatic brand. I am still new to these tool brands, and which ones are good or not.
How does this brand stack up to Wiss, which sounds to me to be the standard?

Snips
The general thoughts seem to be that Harbor Freight is an excellent source of inanimate tools. Things that don't take power, etc, are generally quite acceptable at HF. I know they source all of my clamps and many of my hand tools.

Speakin' o' wich...
When I cut my doublers, I needed to make long distortion free cuts in .032 (I think) and used my pneumatic snips. Very straight and fast!
A good tool to have, but not necessary.
