Dubl Duck Carbon Steel Small Pet Fillipino 88B Straight Shears with Plastic Coated Handles, 8-1/4-Inch

I have had five pair of the Dubl Duck shears over the past 20 years. Unfortunately, they are not the same quality as they once were, based on the ones I received. I ordered and received one pair, found them to be unusable and they were returned and replaced by another pair of shears. I returned that pair too! I'm not sure what the problem is now, but the quality isn't what it once was. We have a grooming business and I depend on reliable tools that perform as advertised.

Recommended by a groomer who uses no other brand. I found them to be extremely sharp and well balanced.

The product description "Made of carbon steel" and "handmade by German craftsmen" is wrong and misleading: the shears are stainless steel and without country of origin, and they do NOT "provide the highest quality and smoothest operation" in cutting dogs hair. Also, they measure 8-1/2-inch length.

Groomer for 11 years and now home groom my furkids...FANTASTIC brand and the only scissors I'd use in my shop!

too much rubber on finger grips ,made them tight
