Review: Essential for First Aid Kit - Very sharp. Very strong. I replaced the cheap junk shears in my FAK after discovering how useless they were, whilst trying to cut someone's long-haired dog free from brambles. This is not the situation you want to be in when you find out that your kit is junk. These replacements really are worth the money. The blade protection fits with a nice click and enough force so it doesn't fall off. The grips are sturdy and allow you to apply a lot of force - useful if you need to cut through brambles as thick as your thumb, or boot leather or very heavy cordura. Obviously there is no "guard" as with first aid snips, so caution needed if cutting tight clothing away from skin, and especially since the one scissor blade is semi-sharpened on the outside - good for splitting parcel tape - but so is a key. The serrations at the inside of the scissors work well to grip the thing being cut, so the force is applied directly to cutting, rather than the item sliding forwards out of the jaws as would be the case if there were no serrations. Great quality.
Review: Best engineer/crafter's scissors you're ever likely to encounter - Absolutely Nothing to dislike at all Practical scissors with 14 different uses that I've found so far. The capacities and options are clearly stated in the packaging ,with photos and description in Japanese & English. It has, to mention just a few positive features ; virtually indestructible handles, multiple gripping options, blade edges& hardness value etched onto the face of the shears etc . etc. the list goes on. I have previously bought 3 others for myself and family members. The ease of cutting hard plastics,thick cardboard etc is very satisfying As someone with industrial guillotine technicaI expertise, I can fully appreciate this product. Highly recommended, please check product is the suitablefor your own requirements, this one is heavier duty than e.g. kitchen scissors
