I have several of these shears and use them to trim goat hooves, as barn scissors and for pruning my garden plants. They are comfortable to my hand and cut my woody bushes as well as my roses. I have purchased shears much more expensive that don’t do the job as well as these.

Great shears for the price and you can sharpen them.

Just as good performance as trimmers that are twice as expensive.

these shears fit my hand better than many more expensive shears and hold up well to tough cutting on my goat's hooves. I keep 3 pairs on hand at all times!

These shears are so useful I got 3 more pair for non-goat uses. Out of curiosity I tested the blade hardness at work, and all 3 pair are a uniform 53-55 Rockwell C. Great quality for the money.
