The 12″ side bent tailor’s shears are the ultimate tool for an amatuer to uplevel to a professional tool.
The scissors is so well balanced, it takes surprisingly little effort to maneuver a tool of this weight. The mass of the tool drives the forward making long, straight cuts with ease. A wide bolt at the hinge enables them to rest upright on your cutting table, easing the effort and increasing the joy of using them. Think of it as a little kickstand like the one on your bicycle.
These shears hold their sharp edge and will last generations.
Made with carbon steel using the traditional process of drop forging practices by bladesmiths of this region for centuries. We have visited their workshop and appreciated in person the careful refinement they put into their scissors.
