Irwin Vise-Grip 8 in. End Cutting Pliers
Jaws that cut square across the nose rather than at an angle, so the cutting edge sits flat against the work. That is what lets these take a nail or a protruding fastener off flush with a surface, and what makes them the tool for pulling a nail that has no head left to grip.
Nickel chromium steel with machined jaws and an induction hardened cutting edge, which is the part that blunts first on a plier used on wire all day. ProTouch grips.
IRWIN backs these with a lifetime limited warranty against defects in material and workmanship.

Questions
What are end cutters for that diagonal cutters are not?
Cutting flush to a surface, and gripping a headless nail to lever it out. The edge is at the end of the jaws rather than on the side, so it can sit flat on the work.
Will they cut hardened nails?
Common wire nails and soft fasteners, yes. Hardened masonry nails and screws will notch the edge.
