I was under the impression that these were electronics shears for the work bench or tool box and they work flawlessly for that purpose but that's not what they were made for they are cuticle shears . there razor sharp very lite and very well made they are kind of small so people with large hands may or may not find them comfortable to work with I have large hands and they fit in the palm of my hands very nicely . they are just under 5 inch's from tip to end with 3 inch's of handle the blades are 1 in long with a slight curve hence the cuticle bit that and they have the word cuticle scissors molded in the handles other then all of that they work so well for what I bought them for. I got them to cut shrink sleeve and they make smooth clean cuts with no problem it's just they are so small I fear cutting something to thick with them for fear of breaking them there so nice to use and did I say very sharp still I love them and would buy them again there a very good pair of shears .
