Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
"Even the best lawn mower can't cut the hairy tufts that hang over the paving like so many unkempt moustaches, nor can it reach places where the lawn butts against a tree or a raised bed. But there is something peculiarly satisfying about using shears & edgers to take care of these untidy growths with a few sinple motions." THE TOOL BOOK by William Bryant Logan Long handled edgers take the strain off your back. Perfect for trimming lawn & border edges. And with no pollution and no noise.

Not what I expected February 26, 2010
A. Davis
While the shears seem well-made, I was disappointed, because I had intended to use them to trim the edge sides of my lawn not accessible by the reel lawn mower. The photo on the product page shows a man who seems to do just the same, but unless I'm missing something obvious, I don'r see how I can use the shears in the up-right position, since the blades are not at the angle to the handles. I wish I bought Fiskars Long Neck Swivel Grass Shears instead.

Hand Exercise September 29, 2009
M. Glazier (S.W. Florida)
I purchased the edging shears to replace a very old but very useful tool left behind during a house sale. This replacement, shiny and new, is so far very stiff and hard on the hands. Hopefully with time the effort required to close them will become easier. Perhaps a string trimmer would have been easier. It does solve the bending problem for which I'm grateful.

Spear & Jackson Edging shears What a great buy, a simple well made garden tool built for the job it has to do, well made, lightweight and easy to maintain (with a 10yr) warranty. i highly recommend this item, in fact I am no stranger to Spear & Jackson tools, all their tool range is excellent quality.
