VIVOSUN 6.5 Inch Garden Scissors, Orange Pruning Shears for Plants, 2-Pack

These gardening scissors are an excellent tool for anyone who enjoys gardening or working with delicate plants. The stainless steel blades are extremely sharp and make clean, precise cuts with very little effort. The micro tip design is especially useful for trimming between stems and leaves without disturbing nearby growth, making them perfect for pruning flowers, herbs, bonsai, and vegetable plants. One of the standout features is the lightweight, spring loaded design. It requires very little hand strength and helps reduce fatigue during longer gardening sessions. The comfortable handles provide a secure grip, making the scissors easy to control even when working on detailed trimming tasks. I also appreciate the locking mechanism, which keeps the blades safely closed when not in use. It is simple to operate and makes storing the scissors much safer. The overall construction feels sturdy and well made, and the blades have stayed sharp through repeated use. These pruning scissors are compact, reliable, and versatile enough for everything from deadheading flowers to light household cutting tasks. They offer excellent precision, comfort, and quality, making them a great addition to any gardening toolkit.

These work very well on new long herb shoots without damaging other established limbs. Lightweight and easy to use. Essential for gardening.

LOVE LOVE LOVE for my garden. Perfect for trimming and harvesting. Very sharp and the finger lock is super handy. Easy to lock and unlock within the hand. Blades aren't the easiest to clean, but that's the only drawback found so far. The shears fit great in a pocket, points up, for easy access. Bought for myself but will consider gifting to fellow gardeners.

The price is great, and with that my expectations are low. For the most part they have worked fine. I am starting to get sticking with them even after they have been clean. Sharp enough for tomato plants but oddly struggled to get through a main basil stalk. I would probably order a more expensive set next time for a better fit and finish and higher tolerances.

Very efficient. Very easy to use. The blades are sharp enough to go through dry material and still cut with precision.

Feels good in the hand, and is larger (5-10%?) in all dimensions than the comparable Fiskars trimmer, which costs about 2x this price. The blades bear against each other perfectly, and, on testing, I find I can even cut the thinnest piece of tissue paper with them, as a test of the blades' nesting together. If this matching or proximity of the blades should change, it's easy to tighten the Philips-head screw at the fulcrum of the tool. Handles are inlaid with non-slip rubber, a nice feature in case there's perspiration or precipitation when you're working. A great tool! Hats off, VivoSun!, and thanks. A minor quibble: I've become used to the action of the Fiskars. The VivoSun has a spring that's a bit stronger than Fiskars' spring. I'll either get "used to" this higher (greater) restoring-force that impels the blades apart, or I'll change the spring tension: How can I do that? Well, it's easy to remove the spring, and if I heat it in a gas flame on the stove, holding it with kitchen tongs or a pliers, and let it cool s-l-o-w-l-y, the tension of the hard spring may soften (this is "annealing"). IF I overdo the softening, I can heat it cherry-red again and plunge it into water to re-harden it. Simple. No hurry! Maybe I'll just get used to this stronger spring, and maybe it will also become a little weaker in force as I use it over months and years (yes, the construction of this trimmer is up to lasting years and decades, I'd say). The lock is very positive and easy to employ. Kudos! Again, a great tool, and it's a bargain. I'll use this on tomatoes, and other garden plants, for pruning and trimming of tender stems, and leaves. --Joe / Tucson AZ / USA UPDATE: May 29. 2021 >>>----> I've annealed (softened) the spring in the way I mention above, and it's just right now to my way of feeling and working. Another reviewer mentioned that he "shortened" the spring to reduce its tension, but, no need to cut it if you do the simple annealing of its hardness as I've outlined. Thus far, I've pruned six or seven cherry-tomato plants, and, oh yes, some of the larger fan-leaves from other plants that are now about 4 weeks into flowering. Excellent action of the pruner, and they are extremely precise. (BTW, laughable account by the reviewer who claims the stainless metal blades dissolved in isopropyl alcohol! Had a good chuckle... ). --JLM p.s. To protect the sharp ends and straightness of the precision-ground blade tips, I use a half of a wine-cork as a protector (you could trim the cork down further to make it more compact). This saves pockets from being punctured and perforated, too. ;-) I'll include a photo of the cork in place on the pruner tips, here with this edit. "Safety First!" A nice alternative to a cork would be to dip the tips into a can of the liquid "tool-handle" dip coating, like the "Plasti-Dip" which Amazon sells, and let that deposit harden-up until it's cured in a few hours (the Fiskars trimmer comes with a tip-protector like that). Best wishes trimming. -J.

Very sharp/sturdy and good for pruning stems. I wouldn't use it to cut a trunk types.

So far, so good. Sharp and easy to use while dead-heading flowers.

Excellent product!

Great for dead heading flowers and hanging baskets. Comfortable grip.

Love these little guys!!!! Super affordable and do everything id want. There are small little stems etc that need clipping and these guys do the job. There are much more expensive gardening slippers put there, not necessary. I'd buy these over and over.

Good product, use it for finning fish.

A must to have tool for gardening. Great quality for the price.
