Squeeze-Action 4.75" Straight-Blade Micro-Scissors

The fine, straight blades of these stainless steel micro-scissors neatly cut a variety of stringing materials as well as fine-gauge wire and foil. Beading scissors have short, razor-sharp blades that taper to a fine point, allowing clear access to hard-to-reach places. Straight-blade shears are perfect for cutting fine, straight lines in foil and very fine gauges of metal. The tough, rust-resistant stainless steel gives a reasonable life and good value; the jaws may require regular maintenance with use.• A jaw stop is built into one of the handles to protect the cutting edges from damage caused by them colliding with each other. Jaw-stops prevent over-extension of the tool, which can distort the jaw shape or stress the pivot joint. This fine control is especially useful for production work.• The handles are designed to slot together and provide their own spring-like tension so that the blades close smoothly as the looped handles are squeezed shut for crisp, steady control.
