Exceptional!! [Posted on 2000-06-14]
These snips do an excellent job around the garden, whether it's deadheading annuals, trimming out dead foliage from houseplants, or nipping off a bit of catnip for the felines. The serrated blades are plenty strong, and are tapered towards the tip, which makes selecting the right stem to snip just that much easier. The action of the handles is firm and smooth. An all- around excellent product.
so-so [Posted on 2001-12-04]
The blades are sharp and work well (one serrated and one smooth edge) and the handles are comfortable but these shears have a serious design flaw -- the locking mechanism (the little orange plastic rectangle in the picture) is supposed to slide down and grip the junction where the blades meet, thus locking them. Unfortunately, if you're pointing the shears downwards while cutting, it often slides down of it's own accord and locks the blades while you are trying to use them. You can remove the orange locking piece (it snaps on and off) but then you run the risk of losing it, forgetting where you put it, accidently stepping on it, etc. [...T]hese should have a more sophisticated and reliable locking device.
perfect for rag quilting [Posted on 2004-01-11]
the very best tool to use to complete the technique and look for the rag quilting seams,easy on wrist and perfect for avoiding the complications of repetitive motions associated with carpal tunnel syndrome. The spring action in the pruner works excellently when cutting thru several layers of fabric at a time,which in turn eases the human strengh to cut thru the fabric layers.
the shears shape and size are a perfect fit for being in control of fabric and shears,I ordere three pairs.
