| porcelain nippers | | Hi, Noticed in the supplier I use a pair of Rubi Porcelain nippers. Are they any good for breaking floor tiles after scoring? . Never used or had anything to do with these nippers. Thanks, Jeff | | |

| Re: porcelain nippers | | Ive got the big RUBI nippers and theyre excellent, had them for about 2 years now and no chips on the jaws at all (common in budget nippers).
Theyre brilliant for floor tiles, but I spose like a lot of tools, they are only as good as the user. | | |
