I absolutely LOVE the serrated hoof trimmers. HOWEVER, you need to know this about them: When they get dull, and eventually they will, if you get them sharpened the serrated edge will be GONE. I sent my pair back to Premier for sharpening and was disappointed when I received them back (very quickly by the way) to find both blades were smooth. I called Premier and was told that if they sharpened only the straight blade the two blades would no longer meet together correctly when cutting. So they have to sharpen both blades. Understand the serrated benefit of gripping hooves really well is not a forever thing. Put off sharpening them as long as you can. I do find them beneficial enough that when my pair gets dull (I have hundreds of goats to trim) I purchase a new pair.

These are awesome! It’s like cutting butter! My other pair (different brand) were terrible. These are the best!!

Surprisingly sharp! The best pair I’ve owned so far. The only thing I would improve is the spring. When cutting a thick or tough hoof the spring just needs a little more to open the shears again.

I have not yet personally used this item, but my Vet did and I was very impressed with the ease of operation. She recommended these trimmersI, I know l will be totally satisfied.

Great trimmer you notice the difference on the first cut. Would highly recommend and will buy another pair if we ever loose them or they get worn out. The quality you feel in them tells me however they will last a good while.
