Fantastic thread Adam  :like: :hatsoff:

I reckon the LM CS3 makes a great compliment to MT's like the Rebar or Alox SAK's as a small, quick way of adding scissors & corkscrew

Nothing like as thorough as your comparison, but I did do a SAK scissors size comparison (as well as blades and saws) a while a back you might find interesting

Excellent cutting scissors! However, the handles are problematic. When I held the tool with the shorter grey handle under my thumb, there was a tendency for the handle to slide towards the pivot. When I held the tool with the longer black handle under my thumb, the tool was sort of pinchy. It may work better in someone else's hand, but I found that the handles impeded my use of the scissors to some degree.

I tested the scissors unmodified, which meant the handles tended to collapse when cutting tougher materials. Overall, they are okay scissors. But the newer scissors that appeared with the Zytel MTs and the 2nd Gen Wave are better.

Thick, pliable materials gave it trouble. Did not cut well across part of the edges in my testing. However, I did EDC this SAK during the Delemont Challenge and had no complaints about the scissors' cutting ability.
Let me state, as noted by ReamerPunch, Wenger scissors are annoying in that as you push on one handle the other handle moves also. Victorinox scissors do not do this.

The Victorinox 58 mm scissors are great scissors that are only limited by their size. Works great with finer, smaller materials.

The Style CS is somewhat edgy, pointy in hand. The edges are sharp, but fully meet only near the tips. This flaw prevented it from cutting fabrics and tissue well.

Thanks for doing this. It has been a most interesting read.

Scoring:
Effectively cuts material with minimal effort = 3
Requires an extra snip or some extra effort = 2.5
Will cut material, but requires holding material taunt or finding sweet spot on scissors = 2
Scissors tends to gnaw through material rather than cut cleanly - 1.5
Will cut material roughly and with great effort - 1
May be able to cut material, but not worth the effort - 0.5
Can not cut material - 0

Great cutting scissors! However, the MT is sorta heavy and bulky. The scissor handle does not have rolled edges, making them uncomfortable in hand when cutting tougher materials. Finally, the handle has to be unlocked to deploy the scissors. I have no problem with that in theory, but my MT does to easily unlock, making scissors deployment a bit difficult at times.

They are definitely the best I have tried. Even better than the NexTool Flagship Pro's scissors, which are great except for a small section in the middle of the scissors that does not cut well. But the NexTool fits better in my hand, and the handle has rounded edges, which hurts the Roxon in comparison.

Now, if the Roxon scissors had rounded edges and were detachable, they would be very beastly  :iagree:

Excellent cutting scissors. The only flaw I found during these tests is that the scissors do not open very wide, which prevented them from making any headway with the leather belt. Otherwise, the scissors are the quality that you would expect from Victorinox.

How did I miss this thread?   ???    :think:

Thanks so much for all your hard work and posting the results - As you say back to the good old days of Lynn LeFey's tests

A few surprises for me:
Lots of folk rave about the Micra - But it did not fare too well
I really like the PST II scisssors and they also did not do too well.
I bought an Armbar and for me the scissors were about the worst I have experienced - But it scored OK here.
Also surprised the Wenger scissors did not do so well - I do find the Vic's better - But the Wenger's are good too
NB. My opinions are just gut feel and impressions     >:D    No where near the level of your testing!!     :angel:

And lots of tools here I have never heard of     :o    - And some with amazing scissors   8)   

Great job - And thanks - Once again     :tu:
