I am a sewing professional and I sew clothing used by our fighting men and women! Some of this clothing is fireproof and bullet proof which means it may contain Kevlar fibers which makes the fabric tough to cut! Some of these fabrics will dull regular scissors very quickly? These titanium bonded scissors however, do not get dull as quickly and keep cutting even after regular stainless steel scissors have gone dull! They are also very comfortable to cut with all day long! Great products! I have several different sizes of Westcott bonded titanium scissors and they are wonderful! Thanks Westcott!
Scissors are one of those things you don't think about until you need them to work right. My old scissors were dull and annoying, and I didn't even realize it until I got these. The handles are ergonomic, the blades sharp. I was cutting some fabric and these scissors went right through. I just love them!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
This 8" straight scissor works well with heavier materials like corrugated cardboard, shirt cardboard, laminated index card stock and plastic canvas. Didn't have any foam board around to try it on but will see how it cuts when I get some. Luv the comfortable grip and the ease it cuts thru the materials named. My hands didn't cramp up for the longer sessions of use. Also, liked the recycled use of the blister wrap to be a safety sleeve holder for the scissors with blades slightly expanded when storing in crafts drawer. When blades are closed, easy removal from the package; when ajar,scissors hold nicely in the package( see photos). Kudos to the package designers who probably were anticipating the packaging be in the trash heap. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
The blades are strong! I mean really strong! The package claims they are 8X harder than stainless steel and I'm definitely convinced of that. I decided to to put them to a comparison test. I cut through 20 sheets of paper using these scissors and my very best pair of scissors. When I used the Westcott CarboTitanium Scissors I had absolutely no problem cutting through all 20 sheets. Using my other scissors (my best ones) I struggled quite a bit to cut through these 20 sheets. It was hard to get a picture that showed it...but hopefully you can see what I'm talking about. They are so comfortable on my fingers while cutting. They have a contoured soft grip handles which also allowed me to get a good grip while cutting. Nice!

These scissors are very sturdy and provide good balance while handling and I'm impressed with the carbo titanium blades. Very glade I chose this scissors I'm sure they'll provide me with years of use. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
I have purchased many scissors trying to find the best pair to use with the arthritis in my hands. These are excellent scissors for both grip and sharpness. It is no longer painful or difficult for me to cut cardstock when making cards or crafting. They are easy to use and love the way they fit in my hand so well.The bent style does make the cutting easier. Another winning product! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
These are some of the most comfortable and easy to use scissors I have ever found. For large craft projects or cutting heavy fabric, they are superb. Many scissors require a "break-in" period, where they feel a little stiff until you use them for a number of hours. The blade tension adjustment on these scissors makes that a thing of the past. You can easily get the feel you are looking for right off the bat. The angle of the bent handle makes it perfect for cutting large pieces on a flat surface. Having recently acquired mine, I can't attest to the longevity of the blade sharpness, but the titanium edge is extremely sharp and perfectly honed. The contour of the grip makes cutting for long periods effortless. Quickly becoming my favorite scissors.
Well constructed product! I have used these in my classroom for a couple of weeks. I love them because they fit in my hand so well. I feel like I have good control when I am cutting with them. They are super sharp and can be used on different types of fabric and paper. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
I never thought scissors could improve so much! I had been using regular scissors for years and thought they were good enough. But now I know better! These are really great scissors. They are sharp and comfortable. The works really great around the house. I used them for gift wrapping and cutting fabrics! They are just great! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
I used these scissors to cut thick backing for curtains in my daughter's room. I was impressed with how easy it was to cut through multiple layers of this fabric. I liked the Hex key that was included to adjust the blade tension although it would be nice if the key could be attached to the pair of scissors in some way so that it won't be misplaced.
