Ox olive cutters - nfg

[WC1]

Replacing 15 x stopcocks @ 22mm thought I'd try cutters as usually I pull 'em and space was tight.
These Ox brand 22mm cutters just deform the olive and score the pipe.
The jaws don't close properly as witnessed by the burr where the handles meet (pictured) preventing cutting of the olive.
Cost me a load of junior hacksaw and screwdriver which I could have done without.
Load of carp.

mine are fine bit stiff but okish for the price

Much difference in price? I’ve recently purchased the olive puller - only used it once - requires quite a bit using hands, but can attach a drill.

Price very similar from memory. (But the monuments actually work!)
They work in tighter space than a puller

I've got the Dickie Dyer olive cutter
Have used it on olives up to 42mm.

I looked at that one, is it good then? Also does anyone know of a 10mm one, or is that still a hacksaw job?
