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

[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!

Great scissors!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These scissors are easy to use they aren't tight so they don't hurt your hand after using them for a prolonged period of time. They are smooth and sharp so they make the job easier. The handles are large ergonomic and comfortable. The only thing I wish they included is some rubber to cushion the plastic around the thumb which would really only be needed if you use them for an extended period of time.

These scissors are fantastic!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You would think that scissors are a dime a dozen BUT you haven't tried these yet. They have a fantastic ergonomical design; they are nicely weighted and the design of the finger holes make them very easy to hold and maneuver. These are very sharp and great for the office (I wrote my name on them so no one could steal them!).

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.

Heavy Duty!
on March 21, 2019
Posted by: Paula K.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i typically would not expect to be impressed by a pair of scissors- but these ones are awesome! They are not flimsy like typical office scissors and the blades are strong enough and sharp enough to cut through many pieces of paper at once- which makes a lot of things easier for me! Also due to the strong/sharp combo I did not find my hand getting as tired while cutting as it does with the more flimsy scissors.
