Dog Grooming Scissors Kit with Round Tip, 6 in 1 Cat Dog Scissors, Stainless Steel Pet Grooming Shears, Straight, Curved, Thinning Shears, Comb for Full Body, Face, Nose, Ear & Paw by iSeaFly

I bought these to groom my terrier, and the scissors are just not sharp enough. They push the hair sideways, and can only cut through a small amount of hair at a time. The thinning shears similarly can’t cut through big clumps of hair, which somewhat defeats their purpose.

I’m not particularly disappointed, because the set was low cost. But I’m thinking it might be better just to go and buy one good quality pair of scissors.

I am very pleased with quality of the scissors, the sharpness of the blades and the blunt tips to prevent injury to your precious fur babies.

Good choice of scissors and they work very well. I am trying to learn to groom my dog, and these are great. Sharp enough and a point guard that will keep you and your dog safe.

I love this kit! The assortment of sizes is great. They are made of good quality material. The kit case makes it so easy to store and travel with. I have an English Springer, and you can constantly be grooming them, which I do. The little one works great for using in between their pads.

The clippers are all easy to use, and the thinning shears are great for my overly-fluffy golden. With the thinning shears, I can give her a more natural look while still getting rid of the dreadlocks in her ears and her butt. (TMI, sorry, but seriously, that’s what finally made me realize I needed to get on this.) They are all right-handed fwiw, and comfortable enough although I probably would enjoy the padding on the inside of the holes that you see on other sets (although that may have made them too small). The different sizes and the curved one are all a great idea, and you can use them for different parts. I was so excited to fix the job I’d started with kindergarten scissors that I didn’t even use all of the shears on the first round. The shears are all satisfyingly sharp, easy to use. I used the midsized and smaller ones to trim her toe hair and fix some of the miscellaneous “feathers” I’d inadvertently left. Really, SO much easier than my valiant efforts with the baby scissors, and just as safe with he blunt end. I used the thinning shears to “clean up” a little more and make the cut look less like the inexperienced “let’s get rid of the excess fur and dreadlocks” process that I actually employed, and I think it worked really well. Anyone who knows my fluffy pooch would be able to see that I’d trimmed her, but if not, she mostly just looks like a shorter-haired Golden. I also got this after looking at the electric shears, and noting that none of the attachments would result in her having anything remotely resembling a natural coat. And all the sad-pet pictures in the reviews sealed that deal. (Even the people who thought those shears were 5-star worthy had the most embarrassed-looking, choppy, way-too-short-haired pups.) Mine still looks like a Golden after my efforts, and she’ll pick up a few less stray pine and redwood needles and dirt and mud, and (hopefully) she’ll also attract fewer foxtails and ticks. I can see it will also help with the massive shedding happening now; at the very least, the fur she sheds will be shorter. The comb seems nice as well. The whole thing seems like a nice weight of stainless steel.

Improvements that could be made but aren’t deal-breakers:
1) that case is nice to have, but don’t call it leather. It’s “pleather.” I hate when sellers are misleading that way, though I doubt that would bother many people (many of whom would probably still call it leather.
2) While the elastics to hold the various implements seem nice on the surface, they don’t work particularly well, and in fact it’s hard to fit the shears back into the case. Maybe would work better if the case were a little longer or if the elastics were a little looser. The elastics are the same on both sides of the case, btw, which may be why it doesn’t work as well with the longer shears.
3) I think it would be nice to just have pockets for the shears, and maybe also a pocket to store the comb and the “cleaning cloth.”
