Just looking at the scissors, I would have thought they were cheaply made and would wear out or break easily. BUT I was pleasantly surprised.The plastic handle is surprisingly sturdy.The blades are sharp and thick enough that they don’t bend when cutting thin cardboard or heavy card stock (one sheet at a time).The closure slide locks in place to keep the blades safely retracted into the handle and doesn’t accidentally come open.Getting the blades retracted using the slide closure could be somewhat difficult for someone with a weak grip (like my mom); but since the tips of the blades are slightly rounded, I found that while holding the handle closed you can press the tips of the blades against a firm surface and that makes retracting the blades quite easy.These are small and light enough that they will work pretty well for my mom in her purse.The only major downside, is I think they’re a little on the expensive side (imho, $4.50 msrp would be more appropriate rather than $7).
