## Description

desertcart.com : VIVOSUN Curved Gardening Scissors 6.5 Inch Hand Pruner Shear with Titanium Coated Blades 1-Pack : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Trimming Scissors That Work - These shears are great. Easy to use and the plant matter cleans up easily. They work and have stayed sharp. I also have the curved tip and they are great also. The locking mechanism is handy and durable. For the money, they can't be beat.
Review: A fine and precision trimming instrument - 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 desertcart 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where are these manufactured?**
A: P.R.C  When people stopped buying products  marked "Made in China" the Products started being marked"P.R.C". (This  means Peoples Republic of China) So you now have ANOTHER example of why  NOT to buy products from China or disreputable US manufacturers.  Shame on you VIVOSUN !!!  Customer Service If I am wrong PLEASE correct me!!

**Q: What is the difference between straight and curve blade?**
A: It gives u a curve so u can trim the flowers better I think because the flowers I trim are curved. I use the straight to clip leaves off in the flower but I think it’s just a preference hope this helps. 🤘🏼

**Q: How long are the blades?**
A: About 2 1/8 inches with the shears closed.  When open the tips are 1 1/4 inch apart and 1 11/16 inch from inside where the blades cross to to the tip of each blade.  Tip of blades are about 1/32" and where they cross they are 3/8" wide.   I like these even better than the Fiscars.

**Q: Can these be used to comfortably cut through 1/4 inch woody stems?**
A: For trimming yes they're amazing. But if your trying to cut a 2-3inch stock then I would suggest a stronger pair

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sharp Snips
*by R***S on February 25, 2025*

These gardening scissors are really razor SHARP (like seriously, I almost cut myself taking them out of the package). They come in a three-pack which is pretty convenient since you can keep one pair by your computer for opening boxes and stuff. Speaking of keeping them everywhere, they're light enough to carry around without being too heavy or bulky. The blades are curved which makes it easy to get into tight spots and make precise cuts, and the spring-loaded action means less hand fatigue when you're using them for a long time. I can see why people with arthritis would like these snips. I really don't have any complaints about these shears. The locking mechanism is simple and effective, and they seem pretty durable. They do their job well, whether I'm trimming my bonsai or cutting open some packaging. Plus, they look nice too - not that looks matter much for gardening tools (but it's a bonus anyway). All in all, these are great quality snips at a reasonable price. If you need a pair of gardening shears, you should definitely consider getting these.
