- Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2024Wiss products are great and these are no exception. I thought I was buying little cutters to trim maryjane plants but these are actually larger snippers. I still love them and use them for so many different things.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2025Very sharp, will cut most everything you throw at it.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2024I have other crescent cutters and had my doubts about these because they’re so cheap but they are the deal. I won’t cut sheet metal with them but they’re great for copper wire smaller than 10ga, plastic clam shell, etc, etc.
I’m very satisfied.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2024These are small, have a fairly long "bill", and are sharp. Also rust resistant. I am sure they will cut aluminum, and thin sheet steel, but I would not use them for anything nearly as thick as metal roofing. Excellent for cutting thin aluminum flashings, trimming flowers, and, on the farm, cutting down green briars, cutting any small tree seedlings, noxious weeds, etc. Good for carrying in a scabbard while walking, checking the field edges and fence rows.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2024Work as described.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2024These serrated snips will cut through paper, cardboard, clamshell plastic, and the like with ease. This replaces the Fiscars snips (of a very similar design) that are currently unavailable. They work just as well as the other brand, and time will tell in terms of durability.
It will also cut through some tougher stuff like thin sheet metal (but not as easily as tools designed for it like tin snips). Like virtually any scissors, it's not immune to accumulating adhesive residue if you use it to cut strong tape, so if you do this you'll need to clean the gunk off the blades occasionally with an appropriate solvent.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2024These are the best. Very sharp and great quality
- Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2019These are a rough pair of utility shears that are well suited to a variety of jobs. Forged stainless steel construction is durable and easy to clean, moulded handles have deep texture to help grip.
My primary use is cutting flowers and they are perfect for thick stems. Works well for materials as hard as light gauge wire. Narrow tips can still easily reach into tight spaces but are sturdy enough to handle 1" branches with help of the notched blade. Slight serreation on blades keep material from sliding out during a cut.
Only one minor issue is lock mechanism can be difficult to engage, but it's a trivial flaw in an otherwise near perfect tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little snips for the price!
As others have stated the locking mechanism isn't very good, but the snips themselves are very sharp and durable. I bought them to cut laminated wood vaneer as well as brass and steel sheeting and they do the job very well!
