ALLEX Japanese Office Scissors S-165F

ALLEX Letter Opener Knife Japanese Stainless Steel 6.7 Inch, Great letter opener...before buying I saw some reviews negatively mentioning its sharpness and such. I think this has more to do with the word "Razor" in the title/description: "Razor Letter Opener Sword Made in JAPAN". Should remove the word "Razor", substitute with "Sleek". Personally, I would remove the words "Sword" and "Knife". I think this gives the wrong impression. For me, a letter opener does not need to be "razor sharp". That can be dangerous having an open blade of such sharpness lying about. It simply needs a nice strong sleek edge. This specific letter opener is about 6 1/2" in total length. The cutting edge length is approx. 3". It's the right size for me. But I don't have overly large hands. The open area in the handle area is not really useful other then for storing/hanging if that's your desire. Mine just sits in a holder with my writing utensils. The stainless steel material is outstanding and do like the angled handle. 5-Stars

It might be partly due to me not having a pair of scissors I liked since my previously favorite pair broke on me several years ago, but I just absolutely love these scissors. I think I love them more than the pair that broke, actually. From the sleek black of them, how the handles are padded with rubber, to how they cut paper like butter, these scissors are just awesome. I do wish the handle part was bigger but that's just a minor thing.

As a person in a design profession, I always try to surround myself with cool objects even when it comes to mundane objects. And it may seem funny to some I should get excited about a simple pair of scissors, but these are simply beautiful. Simple (maybe a better word is "elegant"), comfortable for the occasional use, and I really do trust the quality (made in Japan).

These feel like they are cheaply made despite the cool, technical look. They cut with a scratchiness that isn't present in other run-of-the-mill brands of scissors, and they are not comfortable to hold. I tried to use them for collaging but they were not doing a good job. Not like butter.

Although these scissors cut well at the tip and near the hinge, the blades curve slightly away from each other at the middle. Heavier material such as cardboard is partly crushed, giving strong resistance to making a single cut by fully closing the scissors.

Super sharp. I bought another one just to have around. I also like that it's not too big and slim.

I have a pair of fluorine coated scissors that are great to cut stickers, adhesive and tapes, but it’s a travel size one and wanted a standard one for everyday usage. So I got both a Fluroine coated one and a stainless steel one. Be aware, they are slim, and even with my child sized fingers, they’re not the most comfortable. Anyone with larger fingers will find these a tight fit. The Fluorine one still does gum up after heavy use, so don’t be surprised about that. Other than those things, they’re great scissors.

These are great to use for general office. They're kind of small and dainty, but not really delicate I would say. I have long fingers but not really fat ones so if your hands are meaty these scissors might not be a good fit. Otherwise I like them, and they are reasonably non-stick so far.

見た目もシンプルで、切っている感覚が しないほど切れ味がいい！！！

Good quality and sharp

Eine tolle Schere - schneidet gut und ist sehr, sehr schön gestaltete.

デザインも良い！

This is a second pair as our first went missing at a school PTA event. Great feel in the hand, sharp cutting edging and very satisfying weight. A high quality pair of scissors that are a joy to use.
