yep, leave the sticky on the buds not my friskers or fingers, if i want hash i make bubble full melt, much cleanerI use the fiskar spring loaded scissors.... and I dip the part of plant I'm about to trim in some cold water. Seems to help a lot in keeping the sticky off the hands as well as the scissors.

I have used fiskars for years, also the newer titanium nitride coated ones (stays nice and sharp longer).
But my favorite are the ones made by Hydrofarm, long and thin blades that work really well (esp. dry trimming), and the handles are a bit bigger/heavier then the fiskars and IMO I can last longer between pruner switches.
ps- can also be had for 10-12 dollars, so they aren't much more expensive then fiskars.
Fiskars bypass pruning for the larger stems and then the micro tips for the trimming. I understand the scissor hash, but for a good quick cleanup I like to use alcohol whipes. Just rip one open and clean up the blades in a 5 second scrubdown.
I've become a HUGE fan of Zenport H355L. They're the long version of the Micro Blade pruner similar to the Fiskars. These scissors were recommend in another thread and I decided to give them a shot. Since then I've purchased an additional dozen. It's as if these things were specifically designed for our needs: their tips are rounded allowing the bigger sugar leaves to be trimmed without cutting into the flower mass, the blades themselves are thin, making it easy to get under the leaves and they're very sharp. A killer product.
I've also tried their curved-tip Micro Pruners (model H355C). Zenport had to have made these things for trimming bud. The curvature of the tip is essentially perfect for trimming the natural shape of a MJ flower. If you're into manicuring to perfection, look no further.
