For three centuries, the Chinese have used these scissors to cut everything from silk to sheet metal. First made during the Qing Dynasty, they've survived wars, revolutions, and communism. The blades are based on an ancient sword-making technique, giving them a hard, sharp bite. These scissors look different from most Western brands—the blades are shorter, the handles bigger—but they are precision instruments, versatile, reliable, and comfortable in the hand. About 7" long. Made in Hangzhou, China.

Precision Cutting
Review by Elaine on 07/17/23 review stating Precision Cutting
Yippee, my purchase of five pairs of Chinese Scissors served as a just because we have been friends forever gift for my older adult lunch group. The Dining Darlings love the wide handles and the precision cutting of the sword blade. The Darlings shared they are housing scissors in a variety of places: kitchen, sewing room, and home offices. Everyone was delighted with this just because weve been friends forever gift.
