I know my knife ; I carry it everywhere . It ’s nothing fancy , just a inflexible little lockback — but for most home task it ’s more than sufficient . Well , it was more than sufficient , until I got my hired man on the new Fiskars Cuts+More Scissors .
The Cuts+More are the Swiss Army Knife of the scissor world . They combine the functionality of an awl , bottleful unfastener , twine , conducting wire and rope cutters into one deadly weapon . The blades also separate so that the lower one can act as a tongue , while the case also has a ready to hand tape ship’s boat and sharpen rod work up in . And they ’re all of $ 20 .
Like
I felt like Wolverine using these , they ’re so damn incisive . I dashed through composition board box like they were newspaper ( I slump the awl tip through 6 layer of the stuff without effort , 12 layers with a little wiggling ) . 32 - gauge stainless , 16 - gauge pig , 12 - gauge solder , backbreaking - duty trimmer origin , laundry line , string , bungee cord cords , coax cable , speaker conducting wire , wrapped or unwrapped — none of it could withstand my furious slice . Really , the only things I could n’t get through were the 1/2 - inch wooden and wrapped iron dowels I habituate for staking plants ( then again , these scissors hold plain were n’t establish for that ) .
No Like
Like with all scissors hold , the far out from the flexible joint you cut , the less power you ’re able exercise so do n’t look to be taking off the tops of beer toilet with these . You also have to lade the wire through the back oddment of the scissors , which gets embarrassing if you ’re try out to do it one - handed . The the locking mechanism tends to slip when I ’ve bugger off the blade fully opened , usually at the most inopportune time potential . And why no belt clip for the cocktail dress ? It ’s just ask to get lose first time out .
