3Average shears  Dec 13, 1999
By Jay Ciucci
The blades are sharp, the capacity is good, but the handle covers have a way of sliding off the handles in frequent use.

4Good for Light Duty Cutting  May 10, 2000
By Al the Pal "Al the Pal"
These work fine on green wood up to 1/2" in diameter, but anything larger needs more leverage. The lock is easy to use and very accessable, making one hand operations a breeze. The best thing about these is that they'll fit in your back pocket and stay locked. I also have a ratcheting, anvil style clipper that works much better on slightly larger twigs with much less effort.

2Not The FISKARS You Expect  Aug 29, 2000
By Ms. Opinionated "polarity100"
Not what I expected...FISKARS are supposed to be high quality stainless made in Finland. These are ordinary steel, ordinary pruners, made in the USA for Fiskars. I returned them. Fiskars Garden Shears Model 9637 are the real thing. But now that these pruners are reduced in price, as long as you know what you are getting, they aren't a bad buy.

5great pruners for bushes  Dec 06, 2001
By Patricia O'Tuama "rissa"
I like these a lot -- I bought them last May to cut back our lilac and forsythia bushes which hadn't been pruned in several years. The shears cut easily through both thick and thin stems, you can even cut several thin branches at once. I've since used them on average of once a week to cut and trim back tree branches and saplings as well as roses and other bushes. Fwiw, they do tend to do better on green or growing wood than on dead branches. As another reviewer noted, the foam handle covers can slide off but I glued mine back on and haven't had any problems since. The blades are easy to keep clean and the lock keeps them locked even if you say, toss them on the grass or a chair. Note, these aren't for pruning large tree branches or tough, thick bushes but they're great for basic pruning.

3Mixed bag....  Oct 17, 2010
By Fizgig
I've owned mine for 7 yrs. now... There are two important things to note about it:
1. The safety lock fell apart and fell off by year #2 [I use a rubber band or twist tie to keep them closed in storage]. Personally, I feel that was very poorly constructed to fall apart, but also it didn't always stay locked. So, if that's a big issue for you, don't get these pruners. Definitely would be concerned in a household where kids could get a hold of these.
2. Stainless steel issue.... These will rust if left wet. The operative word here is "left". I wash mine after every use and them proceed to dry it carefully. If left wet, these pruners WILL rust. But if you dry them off, they don't rust.
3. Teflon coating... While a nice idea, someone forgot that pruners/shearers/etc. do need to be sharpened. During the sharpening process, well, there goes your teflon coating. Don't look at that as a big selling point as it won't matter down the line.
4. Oil... Simply, put, this pruning tool needs it from time to time. A few reasons: keeps the blade from rusting if/when stored wet, keeps rust from forming around bolts/screws, keeps it operating more smoothly & easily. I give it a good coating of WD40 before storing it for the season and spray it every now and again during the use seasons.
