I have had these handy little shears for several months and really enjoy using them while potting up my orchids. The small size is perfect for trimming back roots before potting up a plant. The thin tip is also good for precise cutting of a spent flower stalk.

As Orchids host at BellaOnline.com I'm always on the lookout for handy tools and gadgets that orchid lovers can use. I definitely think these would make a nice addition to *any* flower gardener's tool collection.

these clippers are small, but sturdy, I have used them for everything from houseplants to working at a garden center, for deadheading, pruning shrubs, to cutting back perennials. They go with me everywhere.

I purchased a pair at the local hardware store for my three year old**, since she wanted to use my full-sized Felco's but they were too unwieldy for small hands. Recently her tiny pair of Coronas were misplaced and we were heartbroken. Another user's review helped me to identify that these are indeed the little 'baby' clippers, about 4" total in length, that I am looking to replace!

They are tiny but sharp enough to trim suckers off woody stemmed plants. They are great for budding mini-gardeners (pardon the pun) and being light and portable, they come in handy around the house and yard when the teensy-weensy scissors on your multi-purpose tool are too small. The blades do rust quickly, so keep them oiled.

**Obviously children need to be supervised and taught responsible use while using sharp tools.

I do not understand the negative review for these being small--

*That is the point*

They are indeed *extremely* small, but for uses which require miniature shears, they are phenomenal. Extremely sharp, clean easily, and last forever--- and I can get into every little nook and cranny.

Fantastic shears. Highly recommended.

Ok, so they *are* called "Mini Shears", but beware they are VERY small. They will literally fit in the palm of your hand, and are only about 4 inches long. Don't purchase these if you have serious pruning to do.

I like the size of these shears, a bit small but the trade off is less weight. They are comfortable in the hand and and do the job they were made to do.

These work great for clipping my orchids. I like that they are easy to sterilize with the blow torch.
