    These pruning shears used to be a good value. I bought them several times in the past and was happy with them. Then a month ago, I bought a pair that didn’t work well. I thought it was a fluke and bought another pair. The photo is from the pair that arrived today: this is with the blades shut and straight out of the packaging, never used. You can see the huge gap between the blades. For ten bucks, it’s not even worth my time to return them. They are going straight in the garbage. I think I have reached the tipping point where the convenience of Amazon is not worth the poor quality of the merchandise, and it’s time to go back to brick and mortar stores.Read more

    I bought these based on fiskars name vs the equally highly rated but unknown Chinese brand. when received, i pruned 1 blueberry and two new Japanese plum trees (still in pots). The blueberry went OK, sort of, the blades splayed apart a few times, and at the end of making all of a dozen cuts on branches not greater than 3/8, the blade was nicked rather severely. I then went and trimmed my plums, removing some branches i didnt want. In the course of cutting a branch off at the central leader (<1/2"), the shears splayed apart and ripped bark down into the tree rather than the clean cut i was attempting to make. My $80 tree is severely injured my these cheap pos shears. Save the 10$ and use your teeth, they will make a crisper cut than this garbage. Other complaints: >Poor Ergonomics in the handle >Return Spring is seriously undersized >Lock mechanism feels chinsey, i suspect it would fail fairly quickly if it wasnt for the fact that the “blade” is more like a cow’s molars after a single use. >i seriously doubt they even bothered with any kind of heat treatment of the blade based on how fast it was damaged and dulledRead more

    I’ve been lulled by the convenience of amazon for things like pruning shears, but more and more I’m realizing a lot of this stuff is junk with artificial five star ratings attached to it. These Fiskars shears were an amazon choice with high ratings so I tried them. When I took them out of the package and squeezed the handle the shears did not return to the open position, but remained stuck closed. That’s kind of a necessity with shears. I’ve attached a video of me operating them out of the package. Clearly the return spring is undersized and the locking mechanism is loose. Chinese junk. Time to return to the old fashioned method of going to the hardware store for stuff like this.Read more

    I have been a loyal Fiskars customer for many years, until TWO pairs of these pruners changed my mind. While I appreciate that Fiskars offers a “lifetime warranty,” it is hugely annoying to be photographing them, sending info to Fiskars, etc. I had a pair of these from about 2008 that worked like a champ and even had them sharpened once or twice. However, pruning the tough stalks of a plant like bamboo will eventually wear out any pruner. So I purchased this figuring they would work as well as the prior pair had. I do not know where the older pair was made, but the new ones were both from China. I have some Fiskars left-handed scissors I have used for sewing for a at least twenty years, and they were from Europe, and they are excellent. Times change, but the quality of these pruners has as well. Both the new pair and the replacement pair have the same problem– as the jaws open and close it is as if the spring or mechanism in the pruner that forces the jaws back open after a cut is not strong enough. That makes a tendency for them to cut “sideways” a bit, and if you are using them in a wet environment that only becomes worse with more use. I struggled along with the first new pair for a couple of months, then contacted Fiskars for a replacement. I cannot fault their service as they responded quickly and did send me a replacement pair. Unfortunately, the replacement pair has the same exact problem. They worked great for about an hour of hard pruning then began to squeak and have the same have-to-open-the-jaws-by-hand after each cut. Very aggravating. I will not replace them again and I will be shopping for a more heavy duty pruner from a different company.Read more

    What I like: Well made bypass pruners. Comfortable grip. And I am happy to finally find pruners that do NOT have a spring visible between the handles that I always seem to lose! What I don’t like: These pruners are for cutting branches up to 5/8” while my well-loved old Fiskars open slightly wider for cutting branches up to 3/4”. In my opinion, the more powerful pruners that can handle even slightly larger branches are worth a few dollars more. These pruners are a few dollars less expensive, so they are still well worth the price, although they are slightly lighter duty than my old ones. I write honest reviews to help others make informed purchases. I do that because I read reviews myself and appreciate how helpful they can be. I hope my review helped you.Read more

    For 31 years, I’ve been the volunteer caretaker of a 7 acre cemetery. I work in the gardens in the cemetery at least 4 days per week. We periodically have small groups of people volunteer to help, so I own 6 of these shears. They are very reasonably priced and sturdy. They cut well, but don’t try to cut anything wider than a half-inch diameter or so, or you will force the blades out of whack. A few times per year, I put some household oil in all the moving parts of these shears to keep them opening and closing well. Please don’t leave them outdoors or they will rust. We had a volunteer lose hers and I found the shears on a headstone a few months later. If you accidentally leave them outdoors, just soak them in a water/vinegar solution (a few tablespoons of vinegar in a cup of water is enough) for an hour and the rust will dissolve. Then you can oil them and they’ll work great again.Read more
