Default Small wire cutters/snippers - recommendations?

I used to have a really useful set of very small wire snips - a Swedish
make (Lindtrom). Good for getting into tight spaces for cutting thin wires.
[Note: just found a small pair of needle nosed pliers and managed to look
up the maker. Then Googled. Mainly US hits, but £plenty!]

I now look at those available on line and I can't tell the difference
between good quality precision engineered and cheap ones from crap steel.

Something like
http://www.amazon.co.uk/PRECISION-MI...ERS-nipper/dp/

perhaps.

Any recommendations?

I'd rather spend more on a good pair than keep replacing cheap ones.
