This is my first pair and I have enjoyed the benefits of having two size shears in one. Great for small jobs. Will cut small branches such as rose bushes and other small shrub branches.

Comments about Flip and Snip:

Took these right outside and did a bit of pruning. Worked great. I admitt I will need some time to get used to the operation, switching back and forth, etc. Also, I hope they last a long time as I saw an ad at the local home center for a pruner and a lopper for under $10.00. These were purchased with a gift card a[...], the [$] was gone!

Comments about Flip and Snip:

A wonderful design of a very necessary garden tool! I have so many "clipper/pruners" and this is by far the best. Fits handily in my pocket, yet flips open with ease and does small as well as heavier pruning. I also use it inside doing flower arrangements. Great tool and a steal!!
