The SliceA(R) 10595 Self-Opening Scissors are ideal for industrial tailors and fibre artists, or anyone with arthritis, hand weakness, or dexterity challenges. This ambidextrous tool's self-opening design allows the user to squeeze the handle to make a cut, reducing the risk of repetitive strain and lowering overall muscle effort. Made with Slice's proprietary safety grind, the blades are safe to the touch and and last up to 11 times longer than steel blades. As with all our safety blades, these are oil, lubricant, and maintenance free, and they never rust. Slice's sleek thread snips feature a safety cap to keep them closed when not in use and a lanyard hole to keep them close by.
