Query: Did not hold up.

These looked and felt as if they would work well and hold up for a few seasons; but not so. After medium work load, one of the blade tips broke off. This was after only a month of use (on the weekends). It was a 2-inch branch we were cutting, so it was at their rated limit. Still, the metal blade should not have snapped off as I don't feel we were misusing the tool in any way (such as twisting it during the cutting process). Perhaps they are better suited for lighter work.
