Shear Ease Grass Shears - 5" Stainless Steel Blades - 360-Degree Swivel Blade Plant Cutting Scissors - Garden Shears and Grass Cutter, Black

Just received the item today. Was really excited to try it when I saw it. It was fun. My concerns from other reviews was its weight and amount of physical effort that would be required by my hands. I held it with both hands. I did not have a problem. It cut well for all the tall weeds and will help me to get the edges my manual mower can’t. It cut bunches of grass but a little less gracefully- like cutting large stacks of paper with scissors. I was also worried if the height would be tall enough. I did not have to stoop. (I am 60-65 inches tall.) I appreciate the thought that went into inventing this item. It is easy to use, not intimidating, and will be easy to clean and sharpen the blades. My only frustration is a lack of a storage case to cover the blades and securely store it in the garage. Other than that, yay to the end of landscaping machines!

I have a strip of very delicate new grass I bought 2 of these, and a 1" diameter 6 ft 2024 aluminum tube and a 4mm steel rod, drilled out & removed the pop rivet from the upper trigger and the 2 from the shear end, measured a section for the pull actuating rod inside and extended it with a M4 thread coupling nut, die threaded the plain new rod for extending it, the trigger end has a barrel nut it just screws into also M4 thread, then put it back together and drilled holes for 5/32" rivets in the tube to secure the end mechanisms and now have a 6 ft version, only thing is it was a little difficult to know exactly how long to make the inside 4mm rod, I measured what I thought and then initially cut and threaded the 4mm extension rod an extra 1/2" longer than needed, then kind of measure once then cut 3 or 4 times to get it right so the blade lock functions and the blades also open all the way like before the modification. I use it in the horizontal position to reach out as far as possible while sitting down with my legs folded, eyeballing the grass height and hand 'mowing' my grass area that I don't want to walk on yet until it gets older. Works well with cutting shearing contact all along the length of the blades, a slight burr or wire edge from manufacturing I had to just lightly stone off to smoothen, but then works great, I recommend camellia oil for the blades as is used on hand plane irons, also spray some into where the blade pivots, or any other non toxic oil in case it contacts the grass at all. I also replaced the original tube on the other 3 ft one with an aluminum tube. The description says the tubes are aluminum, but they are not, they are steel. All in all very good tool, not many competitors around for this type of shears, always have found good quality from Fiskars products. Very satisfied. I would not really use it to cut anything thicker or tougher than grass blades, it's not really meant to trim shrubs in my opinion.

After pulling weeds for way too long I just wanted something simple for snipping weeds off at the base so I could maintain things between more serious gardening sessions. These work really well for that purpose. They don't have much of a point so it's hard to use the tips to cut anything, and the handle is very uncomfortable. It's a hollow plastic shell instead of a solid molded handle which is cheap but makes using it awkward. If you have a very large garden you might get a little fatigued using it. Other than that it works well. You can't use it to cut through anything particularly tough or thick, but for weeds and grasses it's fine. The rotation feature works well and it is easy to get the blades in the orientation you want. Some of the reviews said it feels flimsy, and I think it does too. There's a balance between being cheap and being lightweight and this tool is more on the cheap side. It doesn't feel like it has the Fiskars level of quality one would expect. But it's fully functional for what it is, if you intend to use it for lightweight cutting. If you are a tall person I don't think this helps avoiding having to bend forward at the waist given the length, but it's certainly makes trimming things down easier than with any other hand held tool.

Sharp, easy to hold and comfortable. Used them 4 hrs yesterday and no hand blisters!

These beauties are so easy to grip and squeeze. Smooth operation. Love the swivel. So useful in the yard/ garden

I was looking for a maual way to to manage the grass that the lawn mower does not or can't catch because of location. I nwver knew there was something like this. I LOVE IT!!! So easy to go around and hit the needed spots. So sharp. And I had no idea when I made the purchase that the blade can be turned and it gives you multiple positions to set the blade depending on where you are cutting the grass. One of my best Spring purchases for caring for my lawn since I fired the people who were cutting my grass and the people who were treating my grass. If you want things done right - sometimes you have to just do it yourself!

Conforme à mes attentes

Very good quality. Excellent seller

Es de mucha ayuda

Very good Quality

I have a small lawn, using the battery or electric trimmer have always been a pain for me. I zap it too close to the roots ending up with a bald lawn. Using this trimmer, relaxes me and I cut the edges of my lawn with precision. It takes a long time but I only do it once a week. I have all the time in the world as I am retired . I don’t recommend this for someone who is always in a rush to do things.
