Wiss W22W Hand Tools Shears, Multi, One Size

I recently got into leatherworking, and needed a more more robust pair of shears. At a certain point, the standard, cheap, plastic-handled scissors just can't cut it anymore (pun intended). I began researching heavy duty scissors or shears, and consistently among reviews, Wiss W22W scissors were ranked exceedingly highly. If you want the takeaway, you can stop reading now, and just buy these scissors! As I mentioned, I bought these shears in order to cut leather, and they have excelled at that. I started with relatively light 2-3oz leather, which had already proven a challenge for my old scissors. These shears blazed through it as if it wasn't even there, so quickly that I almost cut my finger! Having passed my first test with flying colors, I stepped up the difficulty to several stacked layers of wool cloth, and again, the scissors went through it like a hot knife through butter. As a laugh, I decided to try to cut through a sheet of 8-9oz leather. For those of you that are unfamiliar, that's 3/16" of solid leather. And once again, these scissors barely slowed down. What's most impressive to me is that no matter where on the blade the material is, the scissors cut equally well. In many cheaper scissors, especially when cutting through tougher or thicker materials, the tips of the blades will bend or deflect, and fail to cut the material. These scissors are extremely thick, and even when cutting through the 8-9oz leather, there was no tip deflection. Absolutely incredible. Both blades of the shears are sharpened, and they're curved against each other in such a way that they cut extremely well. They're also adjustable via the pivot bolt, which is excellent for a long life. As the shears wear in, you can tighten them to take out any loosening. My overall takeaway and final thoughts: these are incredibly well-made, effective, and durable scissors, that will cut pretty much anything you want them to cut. For less than $40, there is not a better deal on the market.
