3 Swords Germany - brand quality STAINLESS STEEL INOX CURVED COMBINED CUTICLE & NAIL SCISSORS with case for manicure pedicure for professional finger & toe nail care Made in Solingen (90419)

"3 Swords Germany - brand quality STAINLESS STEEL INOX CURVED combined NAIL / CUTICLE SCISSORS with case" We originally bought the old version of these scissors, before they switched to making them out of stainless steel, when they were still nickel-plated carbon steel apparently, and the handle part were paint-coated (now also a pleasant to touch, non-slippery smooth sating stainless steel finish). The old ones we've purchased quite a while ago developed an issue on surfaces that had grinding marks or the nickel-plating was otherwise disturbed with branding marks etc., but even they were otherwise good scissors, never became loose at the joint, never got dull, never failed to cut anything from tough nails to tiny delicate corners, splits, hangnails, cuticles -- and were as strong as they were precise, never bending or missing a cut even at the thinnest, pointiest end where the blades of the scissors have a concave grind, making the points delicate enough to reach into the tightest spots, and still cut through even tough bits -- they only suffered from the cleaning and disinfecting process because of the rust issue, despite trying to use mineral oil when the problem was noticed. Now the new version, made of stainless steel, looks to have the same good overall quality, toughness, and reliable precision of cutting, but without the worry of it ever rusting. What's arguably even more impressive, is the quality assurance, guarantee, and customer care of the seller / manufacturer here on Amazon (3 Swords Germany), the level of support and pride and confidence, how they stand behind their product and make good on promises, not just through big words like so many others, but in practice and in actions. When advised of the issue that developed with the previous version of their product, obviously they switched to stainless steel whilst maintaining the overall quality, toughness, and precision. What's more, they not only replaced the old version, but sent a pair of the new stainless steel, improved version of the old model without delay or any hesitation, without any attempt to stall or find excuses. And the replacement arrived in only a few short days as well, in its newer version packaging with the leatherette pouch sporting that classy snap faster in the shape of the '3 Swords' emblem (nice detail / touch, doesn't have a cheap look and feel either, not cheaply stamped). Combining the product quality and attention to detail, sturdiness and precision and reliability with that level of customer service even a fairly long time after the original purchase, as soon as they were advised of the issue that developed with the older version of their product, is impressive, and I think really deserves top rating overall, full 5 stars. I don't feel that confident too often about both product and seller at the same time (often the product is fine, but the seller, price / value, shipping, or overall experience not so much, and vice versa, sometimes the seller is a pleasure to deal with, but the product is barely adequate, if at all) -- which is why I rarely post a review despite having purchased hundreds, thousands of products here, on Amazon, and through Amazon U.S., Amazon France, Amazon UK, and a few others occasionally, over time. Due to that volume of purchases, and time constraints, I tend to only do it when especially displeased. Or when especially impressed and pleased by both product quality and seller -- as in this case. Thank you. (For the quality of the product, for the quality of the service and customer care, and for reading.)

Me encantó justo lo que buscaba

Amazing quality. Very sharp and solid . Expected nothing less from Germany

No me convencen, se siente un poco de resistencia al momento de cortar

Had another one of these for 5+ years before TSA (in another country) took it away from me. After 5 years they were just as sharp as on day 1, and didn't show any signs of rust. I'm hoping the second pair is just as good as the first one.
