Fiskar failure [Posted on 2008-08-01]
I chose a pair of these hedge trimmers at Home Depot based on the Fiskars name. I took them home and used them for about 15 minutes when they locked up. The blades bent into each other at the tip causing them to lock up and even chipped the blade. Thought it was fluke, took them back and exchanged for another pair. Got home, made about five cuts, same thing. Took them back and got a refund. I examined them and found the problem "Made in China" These may be a counterfit copy as the steel is cheap junk.
Well-made shears [Posted on 2008-08-21]
The leverage system works well. The cutting edges are stout and so-far have stayed sharp. The shears do seem prone to rust, so washing, drying and spraying with WD-40 is my plan to keep this tool in good shape.
Chops hedges well [Posted on 2008-11-10]
This clipper works great. It quickly cuts through pretty thick branches. No need to get an electric one; this makes the job easy. It is well built. Also, it has a lifetime guarantee, and based on my past experience, Fiskars stands behind their products if you ever have any problems.
