This gardening geek is in love with these shears. The brand was recommended to me by a seasoned professional and multiple online articles, and although I was hesitant to spend the money initially on a brand I hadn’t used before, I’m so glad I did. They’re very sharp and haven’t dulled in the 2 months I’ve been using them regularly. The rotating handle makes a HUGE difference and I’ve had zero wrist and elbow pain after using them for hours on end, unlike standard shears. That alone is priceless. The Auto Unlock feature is very cool, makes me feel like a pruning ninja. They are on the larger size but that’s perfect for me and my big hands. I like them more than the Felcos I’ve used in the past, they have more strength and sturdiness in my opinion.
Be very careful to keep your fingers out of their way and/or wear gloves though, I cut the heck out of my pinky due to my own carelessness. It didn’t hurt really which I attribute to their strength and sharpness, although I needed stitches after. I’ve cut my finger with Fiskars before (yes, I’m accident prone) and that hurt more and was more of a jagged cut. I still love these but am just way more attentive and am sure to wear thick gloves when using them just in case.
Overall I highly recommend these shears and will be purchasing more tools from this brand as needed.

Elegant pruners.
These are beautifully crafted pruners. You feel the quality. My hand is relatively small (7-1/8" from the tip of my middle finger to the bottom of my palm; 8" around the widest part of my palm). I can open the jaws of the pruners fully, BUT it is a stretch. (When fully opened, my little finger is pretty much useless.) When my hand is in a fist, my figures measure 3" across, which fits the black handle perfectly. So, a bigger hand would probably like these even more than I, which is saying something, because they are the only pruners I will reach for.
