Heavy Duty Sharp Nice Weight Nice Lock Easy To Hold Great For Cutting Open Bags and Boxes to Cuts paper too Must have for me I have an old belt holster that Ive kept alive for years with gorilla tape They fit right in On my waist 10 months a year Buy em Great price

this tool is very well made and feels great in my hand. I've been using it in the garden and around the house. It is sharp and cuts easily through stems not too thick. I like the locking feature, as it works easily with using only one hand. Seems to me that it will last a long time.

These are so good. Easy to use and strong enough to cut fairly big branches as well as the tiny branches. Perfect for reshaping overgrown shrubs. Fast and reliable with little strain in your hands. They are a little pricey but well worth it. Buy them!!

Kimura brand made in Taiwan. I like the SK-5 steel and the PTFE coating on the blades. The thumb operated latch works very well and is easy to release. Handles feel comfortable in the hand. The red coating on the handles is smooth to the point of slick. I think it would be better if it had some texture for better grip. Blades are sharp. Overall this tool is good quality and functions well. Durability should be good. Good value for the money.

sharp and effective -- takes little effort to use. Very well constructed with a solid feel and the lock is really great. All you need to do is to press the handles together to unlock the clipper. The handles are a little slick making it seem like you don't really have a good grip on them. Also, the handles are a little short for my hands, adding to the feeling of insecurity.

These pruning scissors are sharp, easy to use and comfortable. I have pruned both large and small plants with these scissors and am very pleased with the clean cut and ease of cutting through woody stems. Very good quality and economical price.

I have only used them for one day so far but they are very sharp, and did a bang up job pruning an over grown climbing rose. If I don't leave them outside they should be a great pair of pruners. Also they have a warranty which is great.

I tried to include pictures, but Amazons web site REFUSES to accept my pictures, so after repeated attempts to transfer my pictures (and they are good) with no luck, you'll have to accept my review as is. I have been a landscape contractor for 45 years (I'm now retired), and I would always use the "Big Boys" tools because They had an established name. As time went on, I noticed that the quality of the tools was going down, and I need something that I could depend on. I have decided to use Kimura pruning scissors to see how things go. So far, I am really impressed with the quality of this tool, but I am especially impressed with the customer service I have received. If I had a question, I received a response within 24 hours, and they (Kimura) were very easy to deal with. I feel that if an issue arises, I will have no problem getting it resolved. The scissors are VERY sharp and make my job much easier. I look forward to using these. Great job Kimora, keep up the good work!!!
