Stainless-steel Scissors meets Perfection
on April 7, 2019
Posted by: Paula K.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These 8" stainless-steel straight blade scissors by TruRed are amazing. In my 25+ year corporate career I have gone through plenty of scissors. Those that dull out way too soon from using them for multiple type items. Also replacing scissors due to the grip being so uncomfortable. I have had theses scissors now for almost three weeks and I love them. The grip is comfortable and the weight of the scissors is perfectly balanced. I have used them to cut paper labels plastic clam shell around batteries and cardboard around a USB package. These scissors cut through everything effortlessly. I have found my forever scissor brand!

Sharp Comfortable Scissors
on March 31, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using these for over a week now and they work great. They're very sharp and comfortable to use. Most scissors start to make my hand cramp and leave a red mark. These left a red mark when I used them for an extended period however my hand didn't hurt at all. I was impressed with how smooth they cut and they haven't lost any tension even with repeated use.

Sleek Scissors Keep Everything Sharp
on March 25, 2019
Posted by: Paula K.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The box looked a little generic like was I really going to open it and see what was pictured on the front? Tru Red logo looks fun and edgy--and hip to the times. I only see one bullet point: Straight Blade. When I open it up the scissors do look like the ones on the box. Handle is great roomy for four fingers and a thumb. Grips naturally in the hand. Maybe consider rubber just on the inside of the handle. Logo on the screw is a nice touch. However I do notice that the blades can be seen protruding from the handle. I would prefer to have the handle come down to a flat edge instead of a V. Looks safer this way. Scissors cut nicely and evenly into the paper. Joint is tight no springback. Awesome scissors. I would recommend the rubber on the side of the holes for the fingers and thumb.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They were comfortable to hold and easy to use. They were also very sharp but I wonder if they will dull like most do.

Nice Scissors
on March 21, 2019
Posted by: Paula K.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The scissors were well packaged. They are very heavy duty and cut very nicely! The blade is the perfect length (not too big and not too small)! I do like them. The only thing that I would change about them would be the handle is very large. A little to large for me!

Hearty but Uncomfortable
on March 21, 2019
Posted by: Paula K.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ergonomic straight handle scissor was not very comfortable in my right hand; however it did sit nicely in my left. Perhaps this might be a good option for left-handed individuals. The quality of the scissor is wonderful. It cut through two manila folders with ease and single sheets of paper like butter! Unfortunately it is not the right fit for my personal needs. That doesn't mean it can't be great for you!
