ok so I am not the OP but my cheap cable cutter that I have had for maybe a year now and i had no real complaints about seems to be squishing my cheap index shifting housing's liner together so well that it is pretty much impossible to get open and I sometimes have to snip a couple more mm's off the cable housing and try again, maybe even again after that. this was never an issue before. Is this happening because it is a cheap tool and has gone dull prematurely?
