Shears Reviews

I have never been able to use these. On the first try the two halves split apart. Unlike the previous reviewer, mine will not hold tegether long enough for use. I keep trying to fix them but to no avail. Very disappointing as the handles are well made. It's a pity they just don't work.

I bought these scissors for myself and liked them so much that I bought more for bridal showers. They make a nice gift when paired with the OXO soft handled vegetable peeler.They are easy to use, comfortable to hold and nice and sharp. The locking mechanism is handy as well. The price is very reasonable. However after a year, I am having a problem with the spring that is key to the scissors periodically falling out. I have to put the scissors down and replace it. So I have lowered my rating to 2 stars. The vegetable peeler still rates 5 stars.

For years I used a "regular" pair of scissors. They worked, but I really wasn't happy with them. Then I got bitten by the OXO bug and I am replacing EVERY thing I can with OXO stuff! So, my latest step was to replace the scissors....great idea. Love them. Love the "feel" of them in my hand. Cut great and store in my knife holding block. I am a happy camper.
