Title: OK but not great. lousy spring
Review: I cut some rosemary and thyme and basil from plants outside. The woody stems beat up on the scissors blades. The blades sharpened quickly though. These two things lead me to believe that they're not as strong an alloy as advertised.The spring mechanism is failure. It's not a spring, but a metal strip that you have to rebend to be "assisted" by the "spring assisted" shears.It does not fully open the blades for you.for the money, they're OK. I like most Zyliss products I have used. If I had to do over again, I'd buy theKuhn Rikon Ultimate Snips 8.5-inchsnips. Those look like they will cut herb bushes.PS-If you want scissors, get some full steel scissors.
