 Comfortable garden scissors Feb 15, 2006
By WL
Easy on the hands. Makes gardening a breeze and reduces hand fatigue. Misplaced/lost my first pair. No hesitation to buy replacement pair.

OXO Has Done It Again Sep 23, 2007
By Thistle
I love these garden scissors! I have a large vegetable garden and have tried various other scissors, none of which were anything to get excited about.
During a recent 4 for 3 sale on Amazon I selected these scissors as my 4th item so actually I got them for free. Had I known how great they work I readily would have paid full price long ago.
The handle design feels very comfortable and allows you to multi-task without having to constantly put them down and pick them up. These also have a safety lock, easily accessible to the thumb to keep them closed when not in use.
Before I got these I resorted to using a sharp knife for harvesting which proved to be dangerous when I sliced my finger trying to free an eggplant from it's stalk. Not anymore, these babies make a nice clean cut, and have some strength to them so that harvesting things with tough or fibrous stalks like eggplant, okra and melons is fast, easy...and painless!
I was so impressed with how well they worked I ended up trimming and pruning everything in the yard from veggies to herbs to flowers, even the roses. The only drawback (if you could even classify it as a drawback) was that it wasn't as easy to slip these into and out of my back pocket as some other scissors I've used, but for the strength, ease of use and hand comfort these scissors offer, that's an easy trade-off to make.
Kudos to OXO, as with their plethora of kitchen gadgets, they've taken a necessary device and made it more comfortable and easy to use and backed it with quality construction.

The Best For Deadheading & Light Work Jul 05, 2007
By Casey P.

I liked these garden scissors so much, I bought two more to give as gifts for friends. They are the best for deadheading roses, etc. Good clean cut and very comfortable to use.

good tool for the garden Sep 06, 2008
By John F. Phillips
"Dad, Grandad, coach, swimmer, marathoner, average guy"
Overall a very good tool - cuts well, holds up well. The small nut that holds the scissors together sometimes come loose but it easily screws back in - just a bit of a nuisance, but I would definitely buy this again!

Stem Clippers Sep 17, 2010
By readneck
My wife has Arthritis in her hands and has a difficult time cutting flower stems. This scissor works good, she is able to use her whole hand and is able to cut any flower stem. The handles feel slightly cushened and are comfortable. Seems to be well made, and should last quite a while. Would purchase again.
