These are excellent shears. Use them to open those plastic bubble packages all the time.

Yes I often use then when doing siding and coil stock work. Great for the siding and J channel as well and I like the small form factor. I seldom use lager tin snips anymore as theses are just much less tiring, comfortable and compact.

Great all purpose shears and a comfortable size and to use. The same design was also sold by Gardner Bender as electrician's shears and they ran $25.

One of my all time favorite tools. Many years ago these sold under the Gardner Bender brand for $25 and were called electricians shears. I grabbed a pair and loved them doing home improvement work. Work great for to many applications to list. From opening packages to duct/siding or roofing. I lost my pair and looked for them for years but they were pricey. When these popped up at al Lowes some years back I recognized and they are great deal and value at this price. Price to value ratio is extreme on these even at $14

I bought these when they were on closeout at Lowes some time ago, same price, $8. I now wonder if they were really on closeout.

Been using a pair of these for cutting weed barrier and pruning for two seasons and the pivot is still tight. Best 8 bucks at Lowe's, grab two.
