Awesome trimming / schwazzing scissors

I have a pair like those and they are useless with the gummy bud I have to trim. Can't even get thru a medium size cola and the flat blades are sticking together with every snip and need a good scrape and a wash in alcohol before they will work again.

Fine for roses or orchids but shitty for pot.

Fiskars for the win!

Yes thats a good point. Im finding them great though for defoliating my SCROG. Very accurate and small.

They'll work fine for non-resinous plant material. These are the ones I found walking through a blueberry farm to get to the river for a little salmon fishing in Chilliwack, BC about 40 years ago. I wouldn't want to try trimming a pound of bud with these! :D

NIZZA do you have the spring loaded version or manual?

Non spring loaded is what I prefer, i would get two if you have a huge harvest.
Dont forget you dont want to scrape these!
It will pull off the fluorine coating.
Just wear gloves and use rubbing alcohol to wipe the resin off and evap the alcohol away later. With two sets you can just leave one pair soaking

Hope you enjoy them!
If you have the cash I'd get a trim bin to go with them it is pretty expensive 80$ but less less during harvest and it saves kief while u trim. Last grow I think I got a quarter oz of kief just from trimming above the bin, off of 1 1/2 lbs

I seen a post on harvesting forum some chick bragging on hers when someone asked for reccomendations on good trim scissors then she said she scrapes them then cleans with alc IM like OH No you do it wrong but just thought it didnt tell her she ruined them LOL

Are they comfortable after few hours trimming?

It depends I guess what exactly you scrape the scissors with, it would need to be a little softer or something idk. I wouldn’t use steel..
They are comfy but like all scissors gotta get cleaned up here and there. It depends on the but wetness and how the stuff gums up but I really love these scissors out of all the different types I tried. They un gum easy
