Very nice. Easy to handle much more so then the older versions. Made a great present.

I purchased these shears because of their brand name. I'm totally sold on Fiskars products because of their balance of quality / price. I haven't used these shears, yet, but I tried them out on a scrap textured denim - they cut thru it almost like butter with a nice, clean cut. I have arthritic hands, so ease of use is extremely important to me, and I'll have no problem using these.

I bought these scissors on the recommendation of my mother (a lifetime crafter) and the reviews here. Mom says these are premium scissors and you won't get more bang for your buck than Fiskars, and boy was she right! These are by far the best pinking shears there are. They are well worth the extra cost to get a high quality product. I use mine on 1-2 inch wide ribbons and fabric. The cuts are very precise and all edges are clean. The tooth size on this is what I would call a "medium" size, which is perfect for ribbons, or much like the edges of your childhood ribbon awards. I would not recommend using these on paper or cardboard-- this will ruin them for fabric. Get a separate set for your scrapbooking and other crafty needs. If used correctly, you can easily savor the clean, sharp precise cutting edges for many years. It's easy for me to give these pinking shears 5 stars, and I think you will as well!

I am in love with my new Fiskars Softgrip Pinking Shears! Although they are not pink, they make the job of cutting fabrics -- even knits -- easy and effortless. As I person with mild arthritis in my hands, I strongly recommend these to anyone.

Very pleased with the quality and performance of these pinking shears. Plus, the price is quite reasonable compared with others I looked at in specialty stores.

I had a pair of these for many years that I was well pleased with. This will be the second pair that I have owned.

I love these pinking shears, they don't hurt your hands.

sharp scissors, great for cutting fabrics, love the grip- doesn't hurt your hands like others.

These pinking shears work great. They easily cut through layers of cotton fabric, vinyl and rayon knits. I love how soft the handles are. Worth the extra $4 for the softgrip handles. I have another pair of pinking shears without the softgrip handles and I don't think I will ever use those again!

I have used other Fiskars products in the past and have been very happy with them. Ended up Purchasing Fiskars Pinking shears coz I didn't wanna spend loads on some of the other brands on the market as I planned to use them occasionally, at best. They are a good pair for the price , however I find them rather stiff to use. They don't feel comfortable in hand as I end up applying extra pressure to open up the blades as well as during the cutting action. Not terribly lightweight and definitely not smooth. They are quite bulky , so might be tricky to use on narrow bits.
