This was actually my second pair of these scissors! I have a pair at home and at the office. I was pleased to get another pair of these as they are a well-built solid product. These are my go-to scissors on a daily basis and have not disappointed.
1st impression - thought these would be my new go-to scissors. If a scissor could be beautiful this is one of them - I love the dark metal for the blades something different and I love that! Handle -- loved that the light grey was grippy...I can be clumsy and being able to hold onto them securely made me feel safe. Plus they never dug into my hands and sometimes I can have quite a grip on my scissors! Size - great size for me - I cut paper and opened boxes with them and had no issues as far as size. Improvement - the biggest complaint I had on these - I had difficulty slicing cardboard boxes open with them.Where I had difficulty was at the very start of opening up boxes. The blades themselves are sharp but I think because the blades have a blunted tip it doesn't quite pierce the tape like my other titanium scissors do. Once I got the tape pierced the scissors were very sharp. I think these are perfect for general office or school usage but if you tend to open a lot of boxes with scissors - may not be the best usage for these guys. I will use my others for box opening just so I don't damage the contents but for general paper usage - these will come in handy!
I like the Tru Red Scissors. It's very sharp and cuts easily. I have no hand fatigue when I use this scissors. It also looks really nice and seems like it's a very high quality. I am really enjoying using it.
The TRU Red Scissors are nice quality and very comfortable to hold as a right handed user. They are sharp and cut through most anything with ease. The cutting area of the blades is only 2 1/2 so they are not the longest scissors made but this allows them to be stored much easier than large scissors. The non-stick coating on the scissor blades is a nice feature also.
Heavy and too bulky for my small hands I disliked these scissors from the start and gave them to my husband when the testing period was over. He happens to love them but he's a big guy with big hands and in any case this is my review. They are sturdy and cut extremely well which is why I gave them three stars.
Did a review on website but doing another because these scissors cut easily through paper and lightweight cardboard and being left handed not all scissors are easy to use yet these have comfortable grips and are a nice weight. Would definitely recommend these scissors to anyone.
