Extremely sharp blades with extremely light aluminum 30" reach, very efficient

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

So sharp they cut off the stalk of some soft plants as I moved the blade into position to snip but accidentally dragged one side of blade across plant at targeted cut side. Was a little concerned about discomfort of "fulcrum" effect due to weight of handles at 30" length. But I purchased the aluminum handles for the extra $2 or so in price vs metal. The entire tool is light as a feather but is very sturdy with no flexing along the length of the handle. Rubber snubbers on inside of each handle make each snip non-jarring and snips also take little exertion of force; blades are so sharp they slice through with little effort. The blades only are metal. Could do a lot of trimming with no fatigue from weight or length of handles. The additional reach is very effective at allowing user to maintain straight back posture without fatigue of leaning forward to make snips. I wouldn't get the shorter handled tool unless you have ONLY very small plants AND they are waist height, as in a planter. I only used for a short outing first time but I remarked to my neighbor that it performed better than any other hand trimmer I have ever owned. Not made for large diameter branches. It feels like surgical quality as the blades make a quiet "zip" sound on each snip. It clean cuts even dainty leaves that my other manual hedge clipper would just shred between the blades without actually cutting the leaf. I am going to take good care of this blade by cleaning and lightly oiling after each use. Thank you Tabor!

Long, sharp, light weight with excellent shock absorption

Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2019

Verified Purchase

First, I am not paid to write this review. I use the reviews also, just giving you my thoughts. Now, I love these shears. I would buy again. They have a long "fixed" extension. The extendable ones (I despise) never stagnate and always need constant adjustment. I've had this pair a year now, they are sharp and get the job done. They seem durable. For, me I have no negative comment. Yes, I highly recommend.

These shears are really sharp and light; the pair I had previously came over on the ark and were heavy, etc. They finally came apart. I decided since I have to stay home due to Covid this was a good time to purchase new shears.
This was a very useful and worthwhile purchase. They have really made trimming/shearing bushes a lot easier
and almost enjoyable if that's possible. Would highly recommend. Thanks for such a quality product.

Trims well, pretty big

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2020

These work great. I find that extending your arms when you snap it in one motion helps cut larger branches.

Reasonably light, chops with no issues. Don’t expect to cut branches a few inches thick of course! It helps with the smaller tree branches of leaves I have that get too low, I just snip em when I see em. The length really helps.

Sharp but soft blades

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

This cutter is sharp and light. However, you cannot cut any woody twig without denting the blade. If you know that you can only cut green stems, you will love it. Otherwise, you will think it is a piece of junk. It would be a perfect took if they used hardened steel blades.

Well Made, Light and Very Sharp

My wife has a weak wrist, and uses this to cut grass along the edge of gardens, along with it's normal uses. She is very pleased. It cuts easily and cleanly, and does not stress her wrist as normal shears would do.
