Below is an example of the sort of ties I wish to remove. I put the ties on, many years ago, but cannot remember how I did it I must have used some tool to twist the wire. Either way they are virtually impossible to remove without them being cut off. I have other bits of wire (similar or thicker wire) I would like to trim as well. What sort of tool would easily cut the wire. Looking for something at Mitre 10 or Bunnings, but don't know what an appropriate tool would be called. Found some tools, but not sure they would be up to the job.

I bought this from Mitre 10. On special at $34.99.

I have done a small test and it goes through the ties like butter, even though I am only using the tip.
