Review on Fiskars 356922-1003 Everyday Scissors 01005692: 9 inch Length, Black/Orange, 3.5 inch Cut – Reliable and Efficient Cutting Tool by Dawn Fischer

I really wanted to like them but they just aren't always good. The base of the scissors usually hinders rather than helps. The section immediately after this cuts well unless the screws are loosened, which happens quite often. The clip at the top is handy to avoid poking objects. The bottle opener works perfectly. Screw: I had to tighten the thing three or four times. Too tight and the instep jams, too loose and it flops. Split: Works as advertised, but maybe my hands are too big because they always fall apart on me. Another reviewer said it was user error. So be it, but it happens, I don't like it and I don't really want to be a master of scissors. If I did, I'd buy myself some fancy doctor's or sewing scissors or something. Knife: It works great, although I can't find anything particularly useful. I have other knives in the kitchen; in normal life I carry a multi tool with me; When I'm not camping, I add a full-shaft knife to my gear. Scabbard: From a technical standpoint, it works. In actual use, ma'am. The scissors don't slide easily into the ground so I have to bend them a bit to actually slide in. Of course, this requires a grip, which usually means I end up stabbing myself with a box opener. A box opener "works," but I usually use the closed ends of utility pliers or scissors to open boxes to great effect. If I really had a scabbard handy I would have cut off the opener. Sharpeners probably work, but I've never been able to use scissors confidently enough to dull them. , really no. A good example of a tool trying to be too great at once when it would be better to be the best at just a few things. They're cheap, I'll probably give them to someone and switch them to Fiskar's 9 inch Premier Titanium Nitride Shop. Scissors (12-96536984). I owned them at work for several years and they laughed at any abuse.
