Professional Tailor's Shears with Gold-Bronze Metal Handles – Stainless Steel Blade

Tailor's shears with metal handles: a weight that works for you

Professional tailor's shears in the classic tailor's shears design: the handles are made of metal in a gold-bronze finish, and the blades are made of quality stainless steel. The metal handle weighs more than a plastic handle, and this weight helps the blade pass through the fabric without pressing hard.

An adjustable screw in the center lets you match the tension of the blades to the thickness of the fabric and restore the contact if a gap appears over time. The scissors suit cutting fabrics and other materials in sewing and craft work.

How this model differs from our similar models

• Gold-bronze handles (the model on this page): gold-bronze finish on the handles and the screw

• Gold handles, medium 25.5 cm model: for general work on the cutting table

• Craft projects with textiles

Who the scissors are for

• Tailors: scissors in the classic design with good weight control

• Designers and seamstresses: for everyday work on a table

• A gift for professionals: a distinctive design on the work table

Tips for working with scissors with an adjustable screw

• Adjusting the screw: if the scissors fold thin fabric instead of cutting, tighten the screw slightly. If it's hard to open, loosen it slightly

• Let the weight work: the lower blade rests on the table, and there's no need to lift the scissors

• Preserving the finish: wipe the handles with a dry cloth and keep them away from moisture

Common mistakes and how to avoid them

• Over-tightening the screw: the scissors become hard to operate and the blades wear down

• Cutting paper: dulls the blade

• Leaving them in a damp place: may damage the finish of the handles and the screw

Metal handles or plastic handles: what's the difference in work

Both types of handles are common in tailor's shears, and each has a different advantage:

• Metal handles, as in this model: higher weight that helps the blade pass through the fabric, a durable structure that doesn't crack, and the feel of a classic work tool

• Plastic handles: lighter, and sometimes with a soft insert in the rings. Comfortable in prolonged work for someone who prefers a light tool

• What to choose: someone who cuts thick fabrics and prefers to cut using the weight will enjoy metal handles. For long cutting of light fabrics, a light handle may be more comfortable

With metal handles it's worth checking that the rings fit the size of your fingers, because they have no soft padding.
