It is lightweight and gives a comfortable grip.

With a hard plastic grip, your hand might get a little uncomfortable if your plan on using them for hours on end, but they're fine for my small household tasks

In addition, the rough texture on the matte handle provides a good grip for sweaty hands

It cuts paper and food packages open just like you'd expect, but I wouldn't use it on fabric (of course, these aren't fabric scissors, so one wouldn't expect them to work for that purpose anyways).Overall, these are decent and cheap enough (about four bucks as of the time of writing this review), and if you only need them for occasional light-duty use they'd be fine, but I'd go with the Westcott Titanium Soft Grip ones if you intend to use them for any long periods of time.

They are VERY comfortable to use (almost as much as the 'good grips' type), they appear to be well made (a good pair of scissors will last 20-30 years, and these look like they will), and can cut paper, tape, fabric, cardboard, and other material.

Anyway, I've used the Westcott brand before (in fact, I have their "Westcott Titanium Bonded Scissors with Soft Grip Handles" and it's been great),

But, man, do these cut really well!These have a great grip that accommodate bigger hands as
