I use these for cutting Dyneema rope. It's nearly impossible to cut this rope cleanly with ordinary shears. Even sharp knives and razors have a difficulty cutting small strands. These shears make it as easy as cutting paper. The serrations on one of the blades keep the rope from sliding as pressure is applied. I wish I had gotten this product months ago.

I use these for cutting technora/spectra/kevlar cordage, and they work great for that. probably cut a few hundred lengths and haven't had to replace them yet. Though they are certainly not as sharp as they were.

I needed an easier way to cut my Amsteel cordage, and these scissors were recommended. Got them today, and test cut a piece of 1/8" Amsteel and it snipped right through it cleanly. Time will tell if they hold a good edge after more cuts, but they are great so far.They fit comfortably even with my large hands and fingers, and they provide excellent cutting leverage for easy cuts Neither too big nor too small. Handle material feels solid like ABS textured plastic, not like other cheap and brittle plastics

I purchased these scissors to make splicing easy with new rope material including Dyneema and other strong fibres. I had seen similar scissors used in videos to make splicing of these ropes and it looked so easy. Normal scissors will not cut Dyneema (It will tear each fibre while making the scissors dull very quickly). These will make a clean cut all the time. I have included a few pictures of the soft-shackles and splicing I have done as well as part of my splicing kit. I would recommend these scissors to anyone looking into cutting similar fibres and material. It is amazing to see how easy it makes the job.

I bought these five years ago when I couldn’t find anything else to cut dyneema lines easily with. They go through them like butter. I’ve been using them regularly for 5 years now and they are still like new. This morning I had to dive under our boat to cut a crab pot loose from our prop. I initially brought a knife which wouldn’t even begin to cut through the synthetic line they used. Got thee scissors out, swam back down and in a single snip cut through that line multiple times to untangle the prop. I may be giving these as gifts this year to fellow sailors. They are invaluable.
