Oh my! I wanted to try the shears and without realizing, ho-op! I cut the curtains from the entrance! it was very fast and easily torn fabric, so if you need a second scissors you can count on this one! For hedges, I cut lavender, very easy to handle and with incredible precision, she manipulated to the beautiful effects in your plants. As much as the fine branches and beefier without exaggerating either, huh? but it is convenient and it cuts very well, even the fabrics! ; )
