 Fiber cement shears July 18, 2008
This shear works well and curls a 1/4-inch strip instead of creating dust. It sometimes smashes the edge of the fiber cement plank instead of a clean cut - not sure why this happens, I have been trying various methods of support to stop this. A pass or two with a rasp cleans up the edge if needed. It actually cuts very quickly. I have only used it on 5/16-inch siding boards.
Exellent! November 3, 2007
Upon recommendation I tried this brand and it is a true professional tool. I is so smooth and easy to use and is quiet and powerful. I highly recommend this tool over its competition.
Must Have cutter for hardi plank or hard board October 12, 2007

Wow, I heard so many horror stories about cutting hardiplank. This handy little device, though a little pricey, proved to be worth every penny. It makes cutting hardiplank downrigh boring and predictable. Yes there are some curled cuttings to pick up, but the ease of cutting is worth the small inconvenience. Then it occured to me that I can use this for hard board cement backing for tile work. I wish I had this when I tiled the bathroom. Great product.
The Best October 6, 2007

This tool is an absolute necessity when siding with fiber cement siding. I just did two jobs with James Hardie siding, and these shears are fabulous. As advertised, they produce no dust and the ribbon of cut siding is easily removed and disposed of. Hardie recommends "score and snap" cutting, but it is virtually impossible to cut long lengths using score and snap. The Pacific International cutting shear rips thru the siding like butter. Remember to mark and cut the unfinished side to get a really clean cut on the finished side. This is one fantastic product that performs better than promised.
Like eating dirt? September 22, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I cut cement siding for years with a circular saw with a diamond blade, a very dusty and unpleasant task. Then this tool came along and I stopped eating dirt. It works much like a metal shear, only the jaws are bigger to accomodate cement siding. One notable drawback is that it is nearly impossible to trim off only a 1/4" or less off a piece of siding with this tool, you may have to use the saw for that.
