Park Tool CN-10 Professional Cable and Housing Cutter

Using the right tool for the specific task makes a significant difference. This tool is truly well-built and worth the investment. It has a spring-loaded operation with a clean design, eliminating any obstructions since the springs are internal. These cutters are super satisfying to use.

Honestly I can't think of a single Park Tool device that has ever found a way to disappoint me, and this is no exception. Sturdy and heavy with a nice grippy.... grip. It cuts through brake/shift cables like it's nothing, the cut is clean and the ends stay in place, and crimping is simple and easy. Happy to support a company in the USA that manufactures most of their own products, when that company also represents top quality.

An excellent set of cable cutters and crimpers. Very well made and easy to use. They don't leave as clean of a cut on the cable housing, though, but I suspect this is a problem with any set of cable cutters.

Cut the hoses cleanly. Have yet to cut a cable. But think it will do the job well.

Quality tool well thought off and like the bottom clip to secure tool when not in use.

Works amazing on high quality cable and housing.

02-01-2026 purchased the PARK CN-10 tool for a custom trike I am building, (throttle cable). Just for fun I cut the throttle cable with a sharp diag cutter. After three tries the cable did cut but not very neat. The Park tool cut the cable the first try and very, very nice clean cut. OK- I'm sold. Now I put a cable end cap on the cable and used the Park tool to crimp the end cap. So, so easy. Let's see if the end cap is secure. I cut the cable with the Park tool and put the wire end of the cable in my vise and tried to remove the end cap. That baby is on there. Yep- Sold again. ( Good day in the shop)

In a nutshell, these work great but cost too much. I bought a set of control cable cutters because ordinary diagonals tend to crush the outer cable housings of bicycle control cables. They cut, but it can take a considerable effort to get the end of the housings round again so the inner cable passes through without binding. That's where these cutters come in. They don't mash the cable housings flat. It saves a lot of time. This tool makes a nice cut on the inner cables too--no fraying. They work very nicely. Only complaint: this tool seems over-priced.

Coupe très bien les cables de dérailleurs et de freins bien net

Producto muy útil para el mantenimiento de la bicicleta

Very good tool. More expensive than most but worth the money. Cuts cables clean and crimps the ends perfectly.

Dopo aver provato alcuni tagliacavi economici, mi sono deciso di prendere questo in un momento che era in offerta. In effetti taglia bene, senza schiacciare ne' sbavare le guaine (che comunque conviene poi allargare un poco con un punteruolo). Ottimo taglio anche sui cavi. A prezzo pieno forse un po' caro.
