We absolutely love ours - and highly recommend them! They sharpen well, and are comfortable in our hands working hundreds of goats...but one of our blades snapped and broke...not sure if it was just a fluke - our other pair is fine - or if we need something more durable for working a large herd...
Sorry to here that your second pair broke. These silverlines were purchased two years prior to the review date and used on hundreds of goats as the customer mentioned. This is an anomoly with the trimmers, they should last many years with proper care and sharpening. We are only aware of one other pair breaking in this manner previously.
Finally got to use them for the first time. Super sharp and cut through a dry hoof like butter! Like how they feel in my hand and like that the locking mechanism is on the bottom of the handles. Looking forward to doing more trims in the future lol!
don't like the grip, my hand slides froward to uncomfortable position; like that it is sharp
Our goat breeder recommend this product and I am happy that I took her advice. These trimmers are amazing.
This is my second pair, only because I lost the pair I;ve had for several years.
