Not the best, my hands always hurt when using it.

If you're just cutting a few sheets of paper or using them for crafting, then maybe that's totally fine. receives junk mail that must be properly deleted. Instead, I recommend getting an electric paper shredder. I wanted something temporary to kill spam, but it's useless for this purpose.

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • Functionality

Shredder Scissors

Bought to make shredding easier when I don't want to shred a lot of files at once (and therefore don't need to break the electronic shredder). The blades themselves are fairly close together, so when you're slicing sensitive information off the page, it's very easy to turn your sensitive information into a stack of tiny squares of paper, top to bottom. Easy to use, smooth and clean cuts, stainless steel blades, 10 year guarantee.

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • OK

Just as good as an electric chopper

Yes, they get stuck if the blades aren't cleaned, but the same thing happens with electric choppers and they never need to be lubricated with oil. Don't do anything stupid that will jam up an unprofessional shredder (multiple sheets, unopened credit card junk, etc.) and it will work just fine. You can even cross-cut to turn your delicate documents into confetti, which requires a quality shredder if using electricity. They work best if you wipe down one side at a time and clean the blades with…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • sad packaging

Sorry but save money

Most wasted money. I bought these to carve my name and address on various types of mail. They cut a sheet or two of paper, but the paper gets stuck in the blades, preventing them from cutting after a hit or two. They will not cut through the bubble wrap used in postal envelopes. They don't cut the junk mail envelope. I was dreading it, but I needed a new way to destroy address labels on mail and packages, and I decided to give it a try when I found out that ink from ink rollers can get wet…

Pros
  • Waiting
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Practice makes it easier.

Just received the chopper. Ok - it takes some practice, but I like the results. Need scissors to remove sticky labels stuck in my shredder. The first cuts were disappointing. They work best on minimal sheets of paper. If you have something with bubble wrap, try removing the bubble portion. This also works if you enter at an angle and then step back and enter from a different direction. This makes a small square but works well. Cut the trash can. I also sprayed kitchen nonstick spray on the…

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Empty

Needs some time on office electronics

These scissors will make you want to bring out your inner zen or vice versa drive you a little crazy. You can't just "cut, cut, cut" with them. If you are cutting into a standard size sheet of paper, you will need to turn the paper over to start the second cut on the other side. You can't just cut, then insert the scissors into the cut and cut again - it gets stuck. Oooooh. since i only bought them to shred where my address/info shows up in the daily junk, i had to be patient and first rip the…

This is a five blade hand shear, not a mechanical shredder.

Short version. Does this product allow hand shredding/cutting of paper products? YES SIR. Long version. You can't get as big a cut as you can with a set of blades. A good way to use these shredder shears is to cut a few inches in one direction (e.g. North/South) and then cut across in the other direction (e.g. East/West) to fit the pieces to make it as small as possible. Material sometimes gets caught between the blades, but this material is easy to push/punch out or use the comb cleaning tool…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
