Well both pairs landed and they will definitely outlast me.
The quality of both are amazing.
The big black heavy duty 10" shears weigh 400 grams (14 ounces approx) and the electricians scissors weigh 150 grams (6 ounces approx).
They are meant for commercial and industrial use, cutting fibre glass and stripping wire all day - everyday for years on end.
