Bonsai Scissors By The Bonsai Supply- Stainless Steel

Great item! Worked extremely well trimming my plants.

Exactly as ordered. Good price. Timely shipment

These work great—the blades are nice and sharp and they will do the job well. However, the handles are cheap, lightweight plastic that feel more like a toy than a tool. These will do for someone who’s looking for a cheap option, but are not quality enough for me to be willing to gift them to someone else.

I have had very many nice purchases with Japanese sharp implements. Scissors, sushi knives, and chef’s knives. This Bonsai pruning scissor is not in the elite five star category. It’s a solid “B” average. It’s not as sharp, precise, or well-made as it could be but it’s good enough.

I have not used this pair of scissors for gardening task but I recently used it to cut a garden hose and it worked great. So, definitely the scissors are strong and good quality. Also, I find it easy and convenient to hold and use them. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Personal Rating Scale: 5 - Excellent Product, Meets or exceeds expectations 4 - Good product, Needs some improvement 3 - Okay product, Barely meets expectations 2 - Does not meet expectations 1 - Do not recommend this product at all ***Ratings are subject to change.

I have been interested in pursuing the art of bonsai as I hone my gardening skills from beginning toward intermediate. One of my early discoveries is that regular scissors are not particularly good for trimming but I wasn’t sure what might be until I came across these specialty ones here. Like others have mentioned, they are long handled with the sharp, cutting part at only the far end. This allows me to snip inside stems easily and accurately. I am also quite appreciative of the large ambidextrous handles that are well suited to my larger hands. I find them strong and very sharp. They are proving to be excellent for plants that are too small for a hand pruner. I am looking forward to using them on my first bonsai plant very soon. Highly recommended, especially for the price.

I do a lot of trimming of my tomato plants. Pruning and cutting off the "suckers" to get a good harvest. These scissors cut cleanly and are small enough to get the small suckers on the stem. Easy to wipe clean with alcohol, stays sharp so far

They bend and wobble while cutting flowers. Useless, do not bother with these.
