Fiskars 190850 8 Inch RazorEdge Easy Action Fabric Shears for Tabletop Cutting, Stainless-steel

These are perfect for detail tasks, such as trimming wicking material. The blades are very sharp and cut all the way to the tip. That's especially important when trimming a wick since it allows for very precise, tight cuts.The handles are very comfortable and the spring assisted opening is a great feature. The locking button is lightweight but works fine.The scissors are very light weight. That's both a plus and a minus. It's a plus to avoid hand fatigue and also minimize the force needed to make a cut, but these are not scissors that will stand up to any level of abuse. I wish they came with a holder for more protection in storage.But, as long as you take care of them, the performance is a cut above the rest (sorry, could not resist!)

I bought this as a replacement for another exact same one that I’d lost several months before. It is so nice and sharp and compact. The quality is good and they are nice and sturdy. They are delicate enough to cut sewing stitches and not cut the fabric. I use mine for many things. The one thing that annoys me is that they do not come with a plastic blade protector cover like my other ones came with. The blades are pokey and sharp, and the cover helps protect whatever thing the blade comes in contact with, including fingers.

Love these I use them all the time have several pair for different work stations. Great value for money and durable . The design is very comfortable . Love love them!

I keep a pair of these by my sewing machine. They are so handy for snipping threads. They are easy enough to use one handed. The lock is simple to slid down with my thumb and index finger. I also have a pair of these that I use in the garden. Work great for snipping faded flowers and ripe veggies. They stay sharp as well. I bought a pair quite a few years ago, and they are still sharp enough to snip sewing thread and yarn with no trouble at all. They also work awesome for snipping curves and nipping notches in fabric. They don't work well (not for me anyway) for cutting log strips of fabric. The blades are a bit small for that. But if you want something close to hand to snip the odd thread or yarn, these work great!

I've used 1 pair for about 4 years now. I've never had to sharpen them either. I've got two spare pairs just n case. I love them!

Spring load was really tight so initially I found it hard to use. I found that rubbing bar soap over teeth helped a lot. When it feel like it’s tightening up I just give it the soap treatment.Cuts great even through denim weight fabrics.

Easy to use, cuts even thick fabric easily.My favorite brand.

Having arthritis in my hands is no fun, but let me tell you, this pair of scissors has made a world of difference! It's so easy to use and I have absolutely no complaints about it.
