Fiskars Swivel Soft Touch Grass Shear for 360 Degree Cutting Maneuverability

3 Fat Cats3 Fat Cats: I have 5 other Fiskars pruners of different styles. I have never been disappointed in a Fiskars product, so when I looked for a scissor style shears I shopped this brand first.

I needed a pruner to cut back my iris leaves for winter and this Fiskars Shear Ease Grass Shears fit the bill. It is easy to use, and it is simple to switch the blade orientation. I didn't think I'd use this feature but I actually find it really handy.

I thought I would find this awkward to use because I have small hands and loss of grip strength in both from carpal tunnel syndrome, but these were easy to grip and to use, unlike the older wood-handled shears I borrowed from a neighbor last year. In addition I had no issue with any plant matter getting stuck between the blades or blade joint, so these were easy to clean off for storage.

I'm very happy with this set of shears, and like my other Fiskars products, with proper care, I expect to get many years of use from it.

SteadyRollin'Man: I can remember having a pair of these as a kid back in the 1970s. Today a job came up and I remembered that these would be just the thing for cutting bromeliads. They are!
I cannot believe I can actually still buy these, and they are even better today than before. That almost never happens anymore.

Ron M.: Such a joy to be able to clip grass and weeds standing up. I can even pull weeds with it by just gripping the stem and pulling up if the ground is damp.

Marjorie M.: When I was new to whipper snipping sometimes there was certain corners in the yard I couldn’t quite get to. I bought this to tidy up those corners. Blades are sharp and scissors are comfortable to hold if not using for a long time

Amazon Customer: Have a 25-year-old crepe myrtle tree that desperately wants to be fruitful and multiply and is sending up 5-10 clumps of new shoots every week. Had been cutting them off flush with the ground using hand-held pruning shears. Don't have bad knees but did not enjoy getting down on all fours and crawling. Thought about making a home-made extension for my shears but then I searched Amazon for grass clipper and it suggested grass clippers long handle. Perfect! Fiskars is a trusted blade brand. Lifetime warranty. Not adjustable height but works perfectly for me (6 ft. tall) but should be fine for anybody 5' (bend your elbow) to 6'5" (maybe bend your back a bit). Ambidextrous handles. Shoots are 1/8" to 1/4" in diameter and not woody. Instead of one shoot, these long blades can cut a whole clump flush to the ground with one squeeze of the handles! (Pruning shears had been one shoot at a time). Also can angle to get the shoots growing under the low hanging tree branches which I had formerly bumped my head on when standing up. Will also be perfect for cutting the bit of grass under my gas meter and beside the lines where the electricity and the cable comes into the house. The locking switch...

Jaime Miramontes: Se sienten solidas y bien hechas, son para arreglar pasto o plantas blandas.

Nadia & Tilders Mom: This is a good trimmer for small areas. The blades are sharp and the trimmer is easy to operate. I wouldn't give this trimmer 5 stars because 1) I wish the unit was a few inches longer (I'm 5'2" and it still hurt my back after using it for a while), 2) it has difficulty cutting through grass taller than about 4", and 3) it's definitely not for trimming around your entire house, at least not all at one time. Your arms and hands will give out if you try to use this on a large lot or the perimeter of your house. I would not recommend this trimmer to anyone with arthritic hands or elbows.
