Community Reviews

These Fiskars micro tip pruning snips are best for fine trimming, especially flower stems and herb gardens, with a compact feel that stays comfortable for longer use. The blades get praise for staying sharp through years of regular use, and the pair can still work like new with occasional sharpening. The main drawback is the center lock, which can slide into place and break, though the snips keep working and the lock can be removed, replaced, or held shut with a rubber band. A handy small snip if you want precision over heavy duty cutting.

Common Questions (3)

  • The center locking mechanism can slide into the lock position while the snips are open, and squeezing the handles then can break it. The snips still work fine without the lock, and some users remove the locks or keep them closed with a rubber band.

  • They can last for years with regular use: one pair is reported at 5-6 years old with yearly sharpening and still working like new, and another has been going strong for 15 years. That makes them a durable option for frequent fine trimming.

  • They are described as small and comfortable for prolonged use, even with large hands, and are considered the best option found for fine trimming and flower or herb stems. One caveat is that the open design can feel too big or too open for some users.

Description is right - great for cutting your "flower" stems, for your "herb" garden.
They do have a flaw - the center locking mechanism can slide into the lock position with the snips open, and when you squeeze the handles together it breaks. I've had this happen with multiple pairs, but I still don't want to use anything else for fine trimming - these are the absolute best small snips.

You can just pop off the locks without breaking them, used to do it all the time.

Exactly what happened to ours many years ago. Snips still working just fine. Rubber band now keeps it closed.

Ours have been going strong for 15 years. What data do you have to the contrary?

Yeah I don't know what he's talking about. I have a pair that gets constant use that is over like 5-6 years old. I sharpen em maybe once a year and they work as good as new ones.

If you have or know someone with a 3D printer you can print a replacement lock. I found the model on printables and makerworld. search either site for "Blockade for fiskars scissors for trimming plants"

And he hasn't bothered to offer anything to support that statement. He's totally talking out of his rear end.

Too big and open too far to be comfortable for my use. I've used a number of brands and styles and this particular type from Fiskars is the best I've found. These are a little smaller than most and more comfortable for prolonged use, even though I have large hands.
