The gap has great leverage, creating effortlessly cut everything (mostly branches), which fits in. Since the opening is very large, are fairly thick possible. The mouth is bent so that the branches can slip out nich forward, although it is in close bushes often difficult to "threading" the road, but has the advantage that you do not run the risk of the road only between the tips of the scissors pack to get and to bend it. The only disadvantage of these scissors is that you must travel a greater distance with the handles because of the power saving: You have to bring the handles for full opening very far apart, which often leads to space problems in the narrow bush.
