Pruning Shears, Professional High Carbon Alloy Steel Sharp Blade Bypass Hand Pruner, Tree Trimmer, Garden Shears

Perfect for what I needed

I got these shears 1.5 years ago and have used them weekly on my indoor and balcony plants. The handles are comfortable and the safety mechanism is easy to use. It is not heavy. There are no signs of rust. I keep my stored indoors. It's a great, simple design.These are great for pruning plant stems up to a few mm thick. The thick/wide blades easily slice through stems on strawberries, caladium, woody fuchsia stems and mums. These are not as good for pruning very delicate plants in small spaces, such as maidenhair ferns which have many 1 mm stems in a small area. For that I would recommend pruners with symmetric and thinner blades.

Crazy but I haven’t used the new shear even though I got “her” last fall. Ok nuts but feeling disloyal to my nothing wrong long time shear. Pure impulse I admit, wasn’t looking for a replacement! Was I totally happy with my old shear..well no..she can be dull not very sharp even slow to respond and worse a bit sticky..but not enough to complain. Damn Amazon making it so easy, so tempting...and the price, was impulse! Ridiculously low the price.Hmm...there something else though. Is JEOutdoors shears too pretty, too polished up....not real enough? Will it fade on the first sign of work or trouble? Yeah has a lot of curves, plenty of spring action...nothing to not like right? Wow blade sharp...too sharp? Will it cut ya with one miss step, not forgiving? Really the handles are too smooth, feels slippery ...can’t help but wonder is the feel real enough..can you hold on or will it take a lot of effort on your part?Yes I write this review in jest if you have doubts but it is true right now they just sit on the bench together, haven’t committed to a sweeping rave about the new shears yet..soon enough with spring gardening coming up though. However for the low price, it is nice to have something pretty and shiney to look at with my standbys. Pleased sofar with that, 4 stars. ; )

So I thought this may be a better choice for a poultry shears than the last two Ive had that broke while removing chicken backbone. I make roast chicken "spatch cocked" frequently, so I needed a reliable, easy to use set of shears to remove the backbone. My Wusthof shears didn't last a year (less than 25 uses). and I paid a significant amount for them. Dr. G uses a pair of gardener loppers to cut through human ribs to expose the chest cavity, so this seemed like it may do the trick, and for far less money than what I had.So far, so good!

I bought 2 and am happy I did. These clippers are well made and easy to use and close. I've used many brands and these are the best so far!

These are super durable and great for the price

This is a handy well-balanced tool. However, it arrived with a dull blade and I had to sharpen it before I could get it to cut.

I love these pruning sheers! For the price you can’t go wrong. They are well made, sharp and lightweight. I have four of them, one that I keep in my pocketbook full time! Always ready to cut something if the need arises.
