Title: Not Recommended
Product review: The photos and the visual impression of this product is positive. It is during use that this product fails badly. The blades pivot on a pin, of course, and the tension on the blades is supplied by a spring. When I was younger, the tension on tools like this (scissors, clippers, etc.) was adjustable and controlled by a fine-thread nut/bolt arrangement. Unfortunately, on these clippers, that arrangement has been replaced by a fixed (non-adjustable) rivet with the tension is fixed due to the lack of a means to adjust that tension. As a result, the tension isn't sufficient and if I try to trim anything more than a half dozen blades of blue grass at one time, the blades separate and the grass jambs between the two blades. In my view, this is a very poorly engineered product and useless for the task intended. I bit the bullet and tossed these in favor of a new set of clippers. You'd be wise to look elsewhere and profit by my (expensive) mistake.
