ebay

Purchase Price:

$19.36

Positives/Benefits:

Effortless use
Lightweight
sharp

Negatives/Drawbacks:

The product touts its flourine coating and resin resistance. So I ran this through one small autoflower plant with average resin and stickiness. The plant was washed and air dried for several hours before the trim. At the end of the trim I still had about the same amount of resin I would expect on my standard non-coated snips (fiskar). The coating did help when it came to cleaning and was somewhat easier to wipe off with alcohol. I also have very large hands so the handle was somewhat awkward for me. Someone with much small hands might enjoy better.

Probably not
