i cut scores of cable and housing every day with the pedro's cutters. they stay
sharp and cut well. round out the end of the housing with a pick after cutting
and you're all set.

Ditto Joe's comment about inserting some old cable scrap and then cutting
housing. Push out old with the new you're inserting.
Always results in perfectly clean cut, boom!
PS: Those Shimano cutters are also really nice. Ours is way beyond old and
still sharp as a tack!

I'll repeat my tip 'cause I think it got missed: Cutting the housing (Park
cutter) with a scrap piece of cable inside helps keep the end round. A dental
pick to finish it is still a good idea.

I use the Park and, as Eric pointed out, it does smash the ends. Really sturdy
with nice crimpers for cable ends. It helps to rotate them while cutting but I
still end up reopening the ends with an awl. I'm sure an ice pick or any
similar tool will do.

I use Park’s cable cutter for cables, but I prefer using a Dremel and a small
cutting wheel for the housing. The Park cutter kind of munches up the housings;
a cutting wheel makes a nice, straight, flat cut.

I've been using a cheapo tool to cut cables and housing forever, but it's
always a clunky process that results in frayed cables and/or frustration. I
hate cutting housing so much that I just left my housing way too long when I
recently changed my shifters.
