Three years now and still impressive! [Posted on 2007-06-26] I seem to be drawn to houses that need lots and lots of yard work. These shears have been used a lot through the last few moves and are still good and sharp. Fiskars is a good name and it's my hope and expectation that these shears will last for a long, long time.
I've used them for branches that are probably a wee bit too big and with a little effort, they'll rise to the occasion and chop off more than they can really chew. They're supposed to have clog-free blades and heretofore, I've found this is true. Despite chomping away at great gobs of gooey wet grass, they've never become clogged.
The swiveling head is a nice feature, but after the clippers get a few miles on them, grit and dirt gets into the mechanism and it's not as easy to turn. From a practical standpoint, I rarely use that feature. Just haven't found a need for it.
When it comes to cutting implements, I'm utterly convinced that spending a little extra money is always money well spent. I own a few other Fiskars tools and am delighted with this brand.
shear pleasure [Posted on 2007-07-29] I'm very happy with these shears. I can't even say how many I've purchased shears in the past just to have them work ok the first few times then become completely useless. Already I've used the Fiskars Shear several times and they're actually fun to use since they DO get the job done. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for something reliable.
Broke in 3 Months [Posted on 2007-11-07] It was working good like Fiskars products usually do, and then the right blade broke where the connecting post fits in. It did this just trimming the edge of my grass where my lawnmower misses.
My conclusion is that this should not have happened except for a manufacting defect in the metal or how it was assembled. A previous review states theirs has been working great for over 3 years. Well, sorry to mess up this products 5 star rating; but the truth is Fiskars needs better quality control for this product.
Fiskers grass shears [Posted on 2007-11-11] The Fiskar's grass shears are a quality product. The Amazon price was fair and the delivery was quick. The clippers are light, versatile, and sharp.
