This is absolutely the best garden fork I have used. The rounded handle gives me a better grip and more leverage. I was very impressed with the quality and durability of this fork. It is far superior to any other fork I have seen. It is a bargain.

I ordered the color wheel for quilting and it is just what I wanted. It’s large enough to view the colors and for this reason I have found it far more useful than the color wheel found in quilting shops. Since I love to garden flowers, I found the wheel quite useful. Previously I never thought to use a color wheel when chosing the flowers I wish to plant, but this season I took the wheel when I went to purchase flowers for the garden. One drawback, the shipping and handling is far too high. My husband ships many items, so I have a good knowledge of shipping costs and your cost was far too high.

When I ordered it on Amazon initially for some reason I thought it was a bit bigger .. but apart from that it cuts really well ..

I love these garden scissors! I have a large vegetable garden and have tried various other scissors, none of which were anything to get excited about.

During a recent 4 for 3 sale on Amazon I selected these scissors as my 4th item so actually I got them for free. Had I known how great they work I readily would have paid full price long ago.

The handle design feels very comfortable and allows you to multi-task without having to constantly put them down and pick them up. These also have a safety lock, easily accessible to the thumb to keep them closed when not in use.

Before I got these I resorted to using a sharp knife for harvesting which proved to be dangerous when I sliced my finger trying to free an eggplant from it’s stalk. Not anymore, these babies make a nice clean cut, and have some strength to them so that harvesting things with tough or fibrous stalks like eggplant, okra and melons is fast, easy…and painless!

I was so impressed with how well they worked I ended up trimming and pruning everything in the yard from veggies to herbs to flowers, even the roses. The only drawback (if you could even classify it as a drawback) was that it wasn’t as easy to slip these into and out of my back pocket as some other scissors I’ve used, but for the strength, ease of use and hand comfort these scissors offer, that’s an easy trade-off to make.

Kudos to OXO, as with their plethora of kitchen gadgets, they’ve taken a necessary device and made it more comfortable and easy to use and backed it with quality construction.

I liked these garden scissors so much, I bought two more to give as gifts for friends. They are the best for deadheading roses, etc. Good clean cut and very comfortable to use.

Easy on the hands. Makes gardening a breeze and reduces hand fatigue. Misplaced/lost my first pair. No hesitation to buy replacement pair.
