My main pair of shears just snapped clean in half during a fade this morning.

Man, I totally disagree about the metal fatigue thing! I've seen shears snap from cheap steel, not just drops. Some brands use brittle metal that can't handle daily use. I had a pair crack just from normal cutting, no drops at all. It's often a manufacturing flaw, not how you treat them.

Yeah that's the worst. I heard it's usually a metal fatigue thing from dropping them or tightening the tension screw too much. Time to dig out the backup pair I guess.

Wait, you actually have a backup pair?
