Smooth!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These scissors handle great. They are comfortable to hold; I haven't done it yet but if I were to have a lengthy project I can see myself not having my hand hurt after cutting for a while. I like that the blades aren't too long so I can do a more precise cut when I'm trying to cut along a border. My only complaint is that they are not pointy as I like to threaten people with sharp objects but I guess I can use a pen for that. Overall I mostly use my scissors to open up boxes which so far they are very sharp so they do a great job at that

Cut without the cramp!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The scissors are very comfortable to hold and the handles made them much easier to hold. Cutting thick stock was easier than with other scissors and my hand was not cramped like it has been in the past.
The scissors are like holding a professional cutting board

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These stainless-steel scissors are razor sharp and light weight. You barely feel like there is anything to them as you hold them but when you use them to cut through something be it bubble wrap or paper they cut so smoothly and quickly it is almost like holding a professional cutter in your hand! They are easy to handle and effortless to hold. I enjoyed them so much I kept looking for things that needed to be cut up!

Very comfortable to use
on March 31, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing I noticed when I put my fingers in the handle holes was how large the thumb hole was-- not so large that the scissors are difficult to use but unlike many other scissors I have used large enough that I knew they would be comfortable for using for large projects that require repetitive cutting motions. I also like the feel of the material used in the handle. It isn't the very hard plastic feel of many scissors that gets very uncomfortable even painful when used for long periods of time. The cutting motion is also very smooth. There isn't a "stop" feeling when cutting down meaning it doesn't require extra effort to get past that "stop" point. Also I am lefty but I have used right-handed scissors for years just because of the convenience factor. For other leftys like me I will say these scissors work great.

Comfortable to Snip
on March 27, 2019
Posted by: Paula K.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the ergonomic scissors - and now I never want to go back to the original scissors I had on my desk! Weight-wise it feels lighter than the those and more sturdier than the "Westcott All Purpose Value Standard Scissors 8." It snips nicely and feels very comfortable to use when you put your hand in it. I've been having carpal tunnel in my right hand so this eases my hand when I use it. The feel of the handle is also nicely done quite smooth when you hold it. I haven't gone too into testing it besides when opening a taped box or snipping paper daily.
