A strand cutter includes a drive assembly and a clamp assembly. The strand cutter includes a nose piece. The nose piece includes a nose piece body, a shoulder, a fixed blade receptacle and a rotating blade receptacle. The strand cutter includes a fixed blade received in the fixed blade receptacle and a rotating blade assembly. The rotating blade assembly includes a cylindrical cutting body, a replaceable shear blade or a cutting edge, and a drive gear engagement coupled to or integrated with the cutting body. The drive gear engagement engages the drive assembly so as to allow the transmission of torque from the drive assembly to the blade mount, the blade mount coupled to or integrally formed with the cutting body.
