When you first start using Stainless steel wire and bronze wire for rosaries, you have to be very careful not to use your expensive wire cutters. They are not suitable for cutting Stainless steel and bronze wire and will dull them pretty quickly.
What I like to use are Memory Wire Sheers. They are made for cutting Stainless steel wire....and they also work great for bronze wire. They cost less than $10 at many stores....so they are very reasonably priced.
Here is a description from the manufacturer....

"Memory wire shear, approximately 5-1/2 inches long.
Made specifically to easily cut hard wires such as memory wire (steel) and precious metals. These shears will create a straight (flat) cutoff, so they work wonderfully for headpins too. Rubber coated, spring return handles are easy to use.
