I purchased these thread nippers for use as a fly tying tool. Extremely sharp and easy to use. Finger hole large enough to actually use. Will cut thread just by touching. Easy to keep in hand while tying which is a great time saver thus increasing production.

They cut well enough, of course. I only wish they had a locking stud to keep them closed when not in use. The blunt tip nippers might suit you better if this is a concern, but even they don't lock close. The sharp tip also makes these not so well suited to rip seams. I would buy blunt tipped nippers if I had to do this over.

Shipping was prompt, packaging was sufficient.
I was a little skeptical when I pulled these out of the bag. The handles are plastic and they were pretty light. They are not quite as tight, that is, the blades aren't as tightly positioned as all metal scissors might be but for the price they do a good job. Actually, they do a great job.
I will be using them for fly tying and for most work they will be fine. Really small flies, small delicate work, probably not so good. They are sharp and work great for general purpose fly tying. It would be nice to find a cheap source of replacement blades unfortunately for the prices I have seen you might as well just buy another pair or two of scissors. Keep that in mind if you buy these scissors, buy at least a couple pair.
You can easily spend two or three times as much for a pair of Anvil's and have about the same quality.
