BYXHUMBOLDT: Humboldt Spear Point Utility Shears

Baryonyx Knife Company

This is an incredible set of shears - monster large but absolutely usable and really powerful. They will cut through everything from cardboard to carpeting to fence wire. Equipped with a spear point tip to help with precision cutting, these American made, top quality shears are still economical and belong in every home and tool box.

Named for the "red devil" squid of the Humboldt current and its fearsome bite, the Humboldt shears are an intimidating, yet nimble, set of forged utility shears for cutting all manner of materials. Featuring a distinctive precision spear point, the Humboldt shears are able to pierce through many materials to start an incision in the body of the target rather than cutting in from its edge. This also makes the tip more precise for careful cuts and turning tight curves.

Based off of heavy-duty shears commonly used in the roofing trade for cutting asphalt shingles, flashing, and other materials that would cause common store-bought scissors to bend apart or break, these shears are a whopping 0.25" thick at the spine for unyielding rigidity, while the ergonomic integral finger loop is generously sized to fit all four fingers for exceptional comfort when making cuts in resistant material.

A hex headed pivot bolt makes tension adjustment a breeze compared to common flathead screw construction. The high carbon steel of these shears has purposely been left un-plated so that they may develop an attractive grey patina with age and use, much like antique pairs. These are truly an heirloom set of shears you can be proud to wield.

like sandpapering rust?
Shame on me for not doing more homework I suppose. Con (singular):These *are not* anything resembling stainless steel. I know stainless means "stain less"; these are more "stain stain"They will not form a "grey patina" with use as the description says. They will form a rust reddish brown patina... From rust.Every finger print, drop of sweat, use at all that isn't IMMEDIATELY wiped off with oil will result in rust. Don't use them for a weekend, even if you think they are clean Friday night? Rust Monday morning.I'm not working in the coast guard or cutting mermaid hair for a living. These things *will* rust.Some Pro's:They come apart easy enough. Useful.Sharpen easy as well. Useful.Hold an edge, comfortable to use, nice balance, standard size to get a sheath for. All useful.Just be prepared to be getting fine grit sandpaper and giving them a once over weekly. You can try gun oil or graphite or something nightly, but I would still get the sandpaper or a "super eraser".Really nice scissors (shears, semantics, whatever); but being a little more rust resistant or an explanation they went the way they did would be great. I'll keep using them at work until I lose them; but I'm not worried about them getting lifted because they look like I found them in the wreckage of the titanic every few days.
