This product was as advertised and I especially appreciated the info from the seller regarding the use of the tool prior to receiving it. Great product and worked the way I needed it to.

I was sent the bypass pruning shears from the manufacturer, free of charge, to evaluate

The Haus & Garten garden shears are excellent.  The latch can be easily opened and closed with the thumb.  This makes it easy when going after limbs that just within range.  There is a shock absorbing pad that provides cushioning at the end of a tough cut, but it is not part mechanism that hold the shears shut.  I had another brand that tended to open in my pocket when not in use that relied on the cushion to provide sufficient pressure to keep shears from self-opening. The handle coating has the perfect blend of resistance, not so hard that you feel like you are bruising your hand, and not so soft that you get blisters.

The main difference between these and the smaller pruners have to do with what to use them for. These are better for trees and heavier shrubs.

Very nice pruning shears. Comfortable to hold and easy to use on branches and twigs up to .5 inch thick. Had to really work at cutting thicker sticks. Snips opened and closed without issue. The mechanism to keep the shears closed works without any issues. These made short work of herb bed cleanup. Disclosure: the discount I received effected my willingness to try the product notvtge content of my review.

This product was sent for review reasons.

These are hardy shears, cut well and strong.. one cutting edge is serrated and the other is smooth. They cut good and easy.. good shears are worth its weight and gold... well silver lol..
I like these they cut food well, have no issues cutting small vines and the such, they also cut thin gauge wire (up to 12 ga, 10 ga was not easy to cut and likely will damage the cutting edges due to it slicing through so many stands) 12 ga is pretty thick and it cut it fairly easy.

All in all these are a worthy set of shears to your household, they aren't a cheap set and will last well if you take care of them.

These little shears are the perfect tool for the hobby gardener. We use them regularly in our herb and vegetable garden to trim back vines, small branches, and vegetable plants that are getting a little out of control. They are excellently manufactured and seem to be built to last. The handle grips are comfortable without being too soft. The blade seems to be retaining its sharpness with regular use. As other users have pointed out, these do seem to work better on living or "Green" wood as opposed to hardened branches. The lock function lets us store these in our garden bag without fear of reaching in a slicing open a hand.

Make sure to keep the blades clean to prevent build up and rust.

These are a great product from a trusted brand! I have no hesitation recommending these to anyone.

These garden snipping shears are very sharp. That is a good thing. They will cut thin branches and leaves easily. Some slightly thicker branches may cut but not very thick ones. They will also work well for cutting off dead blooms, leaves, buds and vines. They are made very well. The blades are thin, stainless steel and cut cleanly. The handles are a thick, durable plastic. The handles are easy to open and close fir cutting and comfortable to hold. You can lock the sheers closed when not in use for storage.

The only negative I have is they are really really small. They were much smaller than I expected.

This item is a replacement for an old pruner that never worked that well. I was not disappointed in these. They moved smoothly and I was able to prune the hedge easily which in the past was no easy task. Great product.

These shears work amazingly well. They were not very expensive and I have been very pleased at how they've worked.

I made the mistake of buying a different brand that LOOKED good, but they fell far short of my expectations.  This set of pruning shears, however, is darn near perfect.  Easy to use, good locking mechanism, nice, tight mechanism, and solid grips.  Highly recommended.

Hedge Shears work great, I am very glad I didn't get a much more expensive electric shear and would be dragging an extension cord around the yard.  Shears were packed great and shipping was very fast.  Extending handles let me trim even the taller hedges in our yard, great product.

These are very nice all purpose shears.  They come with a plastic case to protect the sharp end of the shears - which my wife promptly lost :-)

The quality is excellent and I highly recommend these to anyone looking for a good pair of shears.

I ordered these shears because I was looking for some new hoof trimmers and other reviewers recommended them.  They are wonderful.  They cut well and have a much more comfortable grip than any actual 'goat trimmers' I have tried.  I'm sure they would work equally well for other tough cutting chores.

I have had several hedge trimmers over the years and this one is the best.  It is light, powerful, very sharp and cuts clean with one pass.  I highly recommend this one for home use.

These shears are perfect. They are quite sharp and are used with ease. The price is very good and they are worth every penny. American made, too.

These shears are very nice. The shape of both handles provide a nice, secure grip and make them very comfortable to use. They are also light which makes them easy to manipulate. I have pruned with them several times, and they are still as sharp as the first time I used them.

Disclaimer: I received these and their sister pair in exchange for a fair and honest review, and since the only real difference between the two is the size of branches they can reasonably cut through, I will post the same review for both with notes on their individual specific uses.

Well, I received these right at about a month ago. Over the last two weeks, and especially over this past week, we've had cause to use them quite a bit as the various bushes and trees are in full cycle again.

So, the red grip on both is very comfortable and designed to reduce shock from heavy use while also being slip resistant. They work perfectly. My hands and wrists get less tired using these than with some of my other shears. That is notable after a day of pruning.

They are both incredibly sharp and quite heavy duty without actually being heavy in weight. I expect these will stay in top condition for years to come despite seeing heavy use. The titanium edge definitely makes the actual act of cutting far easier as well. These really cut through their targets with incredible ease.

The sap groove was a thoughtful inclusion to the design. It works quite well so far.

They also have a wire cutter attached. I haven't had cause to use this feature, but I imagine it will come in handy at some point.

So, the smaller of the two shears is made to cut through .8" branches, and this seems to be pretty accurate from my own use. Basically is used to clip the thinner branches.

The larger shears are used for 1" branches. Now, I've found I can actually cut through branches pushing 3 inches with these, so I'd say that far exceeds their recommended usage and increases their value in my estimation.

All told, I can easily recommend both shears. They are truly quality tools that you will want to own.
