"Easy to use and makes a huge difference in the cut. Makes it look like the pros due on my Old English Sheep dogs paws"

"I'm not sure how they can call these shears. They are dull & will not cut even the smallest amount of hair. I ordered 1 pair & somehow ended up with 2 when the shipment arrived."
