Razor sharp

Very well-made, sturdy. These do not have any sort of spring action, but Ifm fine with that. Be careful! These are razor sharp out of the box, I was opening packages and handling them carelessly and cut my finger. These look like they will last a long time. No rust forming yet, but I keep them in the tool shed when not in use.
