Scissors of good quality and designed for heavy loads. Not the best option for small, delicate tasks, and I wish the handles were larger for a more comfortable grip. I noticed that there was a small burr on the cutting edge, which I removed with a sharpener. After that, the scissors cut 10 times easier. If you buy these I recommend inspecting the edge and if there is a burr, grind or sharpen them like a knife blade and you will find that they cut amazingly well. I'm deducting one star because of poor blade quality and poor grip ergonomics.
