Fiskars 12-94227097 5-Inch Blunt Softgrip Scissors Review

Fiskars 12-94227097 5-Inch Blunt Softgrip Scissors
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am an Art teacher that has been using Fiskars student scissors for 10+ years. When I received my latest order of scissors, they were of this new type with the "larger" handles (exactly like these, but without the "softgrip"). Because of the new way that the blades are seated into the handles, they are prone to become loose and wobbly, eventually rendering them impossible to cut with. This is at the plastic connection point, not the pivot screw, so they cannot be re-tightened. I have 10 year old pairs of the other style that cut better than these new ones. Furthermore, the new, "larger" handles actually have smaller finger openings-- so they are uncomfortable for larger-handed students to use or for adults to demonstrate with.

I for some reason assumed everyone else just ordered without doing their homework, so despite all the one-star reviews citing that it did not fit, I ponied up and ordered them when I lost my cutting carriage. After consulting the Fiskars site and double checking make and model, I was confident these would work. Nope. No deal. They don't even come close to fitting, so you can't even use these in any way with the trimmer. Booo!

I've never used this type of cutter before, so I didn't know what to expect. I make miniature quilts, and cutting small strips and squares is very difficult with scissors. A rotary cutter was recommended to me by my fellow miniaturists, and I found these on Amazon. They work perfectly and make the job much easier. The cuts are clean, sharp and perfectly straight using my cutting mat. Would definitely recommend these to a friend.

This craft knife purchase from Amazon meets my expectations. The handle fits in my hand as I had hoped it would. It helps prevent fatigue and cramping I had previously experienced while using those craft knives with cylindrical handles. The lid enclosure for the blade stays closed instead of slipping off. Because of the ease of use, I find myself using it for household purposes other than crafting. I am very pleased with my new Softgrip Craft Knife. I wish all my tools had this type handle.

I've been having trouble with regular scissors getting sticky and not cutting properly after using them to cut labels. I bought these to try to avoid that problem and so far they are working great.
The blades are coated with something that keeps them from sticking and taking on the sticky stuff from labels that I was having happen with the others.
I recommend them if you need to avoid sticky blades.

Fiskars 95117097 28mm Rotary Cutter Review

Fiskars 95117097 28mm Rotary Cutter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this product to simplify longer cuts along a straight edge where a mounted cutter was too confining, and shears presented too many variances in the cut (potentially shaky operator influenced...).
Pros: Good product, easy to use, reliable safety features, cuts well with thin material (paper thin)
Cons: The product does not perform as well on heavier materials, and the blade can hang up on card stock thickness paper, which caused 'dimples' in the cut when the wheel failed to rotate completely (even with varying degrees of tightness of the mounting nut). It had no problems with thin sheet vinyl.
Summary: Overall a good product for the price, works as expected, but if you have heavier stock to cut, consider a more robust rotary cutter with bearings and a deeper blade.

This blade works well on fabric, even though the packaging from the manufacturer states this blade is intended for cutting paper. Your item description states this is for fabric, paper and many other uses. Fortunately the blade does cut fabric resulting in a clean beautiful scallop finish. This purchase seems to be exactly what I was looking for after all.

I use the Fiskars Nonstick 8" Bent Scissor and the Fiskars Nonstick 5" Scissor for crafting with duct tape. There isn't much that sticks more obnoxiously than duct tape but these Fiskars nonstick scissors snip right through the tape as if it were nothing more than paper. Try getting a few straight cuts through duct tape with standard scissor if you dare.
Very little tape sticks to these scissors at all even on large projects and you can very easily clean any sticky with a quick rag swipe or a single dab of clean tape. Try that with standard scissors and you will be sorely disappointed and probably quite frustrated (at least I was). These nonstick scissors are a life saver. Leave it to Fiskars to come up with the smart solution!
The 8" bent scissors are very ergonomic and are the size and shape of the good sewing scissors many ladies (and gentleman who sew) don't let anybody touch - perfect for clean cuts on just about any medium to large project and great for just about any standard cutting job.
The 5" scissors are fantastic for detail cuts and small projects. Both scissors are ergonomic and your hands don't get tired quickly with a lot of cutting with either pair - though I wouldn't use the 5" pair for large cutting jobs.
Thank you for a fantastic solution, Fiskars!

I ship packages every day. Good scissors are important to me. These are quite good, but not as good as the pair I bought five years ago. Fiskars is cheapening up everything. I bought some of their yard trimmers and they're not worth using. It's still an okay brand overall, but it's no longer a great brand. But I'll buy these scissors again, I am sure.

A useful addition to any crafter's collection of tools, this pair of sewing scissors features sharp, steeply angled blades designed to ensure accurate, precise cuts. Use it to cut anything from corduroy and denim to quilts, wool, and a full range of other materials. The unit's Razor Edged cutting blades quickly and efficiently cut through multiple layers of fabric at a time, while its easy-action spring brings the cutting blades back into an open position after each compression, assisting in an effortless forward motion. Even more, the pair of scissors provides ergonomically designed handles, one open and one enclosed, each fitted with cushioned material for comfort. When finished, close the blades and slide the lock in place for safe, compact storage in a drawer or sewing basket. The pair of scissors measures approximately 2 by 4 by 12 inches.
