Product Description
The Fiskars ShearEase grass shears are an ideal tool for precision grass trimming. The grass shears feature a cutting head that rotates 360-degrees for easy trimming at any angle. Included with the tool is the patented ShearEase mechanism that prevents the blades from jamming or sticking with grass, as it was designed to clear them out with each cut. The blades are made of fully-hardened stainless steel for added strength and durability, and the body is made from hardened Nyglass--a strong, but lightweight nylon/fiberglass composite that provides long-lasting durability. Additionally, the unit's blades open extra wide for greater cutting capacity, and there's an included thumb operated locking mechanism for safe storage and easy transportation. The ambidextrous design will ensure seamless usability between right and left-handed users, and the shears come with a limited lifetime warranty.
Reader Reviews
I seem to be drawn to houses that need lots and lots of yard work. These shears have been used a lot through the last few moves and are still good and sharp. Fiskars is a good name and it's my hope and expectation that these shears will last for a long, long time. I've used them for branches that are probably a wee bit too big and with a little effort, they'll rise to the occasion and chop off more than they can really chew. They're supposed to have clog-free blades and heretofore, I've found this is true. Despite chomping away at great gobs of gooey wet grass, they've never become clogged. The swiveling head is a nice feature, but after the clippers get a few miles on them, grit and dirt gets into the mechanism and it's not as easy to turn. From a practical standpoint, I rarely use that feature. Just haven't found a need for it. When it comes to cutting implements, I'm utterly convinced that spending a little extra money is always money well spent. I own a few other Fiskars tools and am delighted with this brand.
