The shears arrived quickly and were very sharp straight away. I was dying to compare them to an old set from another brand that I've had for 15 years or more. The new scissors are very light and easy to use and have a secure clasp to keep them in place when not in use. The only negative comment I have is that when cutting through tougher branches the blade will curl when cutting. The blade itself is thinner than my old scissors and seems less durable. But for the price they are good.
