The Damascus steel blades of these hydraulic based wire cutters are able to cut through any wire or cable with ease. The Wire Cutters were originally located in a toolbox in the underground transport shuttle in the Mars Morimoto Colony, along with the Maintenance Key for the power generator. Wire Cutters can be used to cut the lock on the control box from the utility room where Mercury is about to assassinate Enrique Castillo at the World Science Center. The control box allows Blackwood to defeat Mercury in a non-violent Ghandi method.
