A cutting tool with double compound leverage includes first and second opposed handle levers having handle ends and pivot ends. One of the handle levers includes a double link with a rearward portion defining the handle end and a forward portion defining the pivot end. First and second opposed blade levers each include a jaw end with a cutting blade and a lever end. The blade levers are each pivotally attached intermediate the jaw end and the lever end at spaced apart pivot points to a transverse coupling element. The pivot ends of the handle levers are pivotally attached to the lever ends of the blade levers. First and second compound linkage pivotally couple the handle levers and the blade levers so as to provide complete opening and closing of the cutting jaws.
