    After all these years I still don't get it. I wouldn't want to die without understanding it. Bolt cutters? How can bolt cutters cut through steel/metal??? Who could have the muscle to squeeze the handles. It's an on going puzzle to me.

    Metal is rated in several ways, including hardness and malleability. The bolt is hard, but not as hard as the cutter. It is more malleable than the cutter, meaning that as the cutter presses against it, it 'squeezes' away from the pressure.

    I worked for an employer whose wife and daughter joked about his mechanical abilities. They said if someone gave him a screwdriver, he wouldn't know which end to hold. On the other hand, he did know how to run a successful business.

    Leverage has a lot to do with it also.

    The design of the pinchers and the leverage is it. Yes the steel plays a role but leverage is king in the world
