## Long description

Maped Essentials OFFICE scissors model 468101 are 210 mm cutting tools with rounded tips and asymmetric blades designed for controlled shearing. The handles are manufactured using 60% recycled plastic, combining a familiar office design with a reduced environmental footprint. These scissors are supplied as a single piece and are intended for general office, school and home cutting tasks.
Advantages
The asymmetric blade geometry promotes ergonomic cutting by aligning with natural hand movement, while the rounded tip improves safety for everyday use. At 210 mm overall length the scissors balance cutting reach and maneuverability for tasks such as trimming paper and light craft materials. Handles produced from 60% recycled plastic reduce the use of virgin materials without changing the basic handling characteristics.
Suitable for
 Cutting paper and lightweight cardboard in office and school environments
 Basic craft and hobby tasks with thin materials
 Routine household cutting where a rounded tip is preferred for safety
When it may not be suitable
These scissors are intended primarily for paper, lightweight cardboard and similar thin materials. They are not designed for heavy-duty cutting tasks such as thick plastic, dense cardboard, fabric heavy seams, metal, wire, or woodworking. Users requiring precise tailoring shears, industrial cutters, or specialist scissors should select a purpose-built product.
Key specifications

 Tip type: rounded tip for increased safety
 Blade design: asymmetric blades for ergonomic cutting action
 Handle material: contains 60% recycled plastic
 Intended materials: paper, lightweight cardboard, thin craft materials
 Pack: single piece
How to use
Hold the scissors so the asymmetric blades align with your natural cutting direction and position the material between the blades near the hinge for stronger cuts or further along the blades for trimming. Use steady, even pressure and open the handles fully before each cut to maintain blade alignment. For safety, keep the rounded tip away from the body and store the scissors in a closed drawer or protective sheath when not in use.
What to consider before purchase
 Confirm that typical tasks involve paper or light craft materials rather than heavy or dense materials
 Consider whether a rounded-tip safety design meets any required workplace or school safety standards
 Decide if the 210 mm length and asymmetric blades suit your preferred cutting hand orientation
Usage recommendations
For best performance, use these scissors on clean, dry paper or thin cardboard and avoid cutting staples or thick items that could nick the blades. Periodically wipe the blades clean and tighten the central rivet if cutting performance decreases. The recycled-plastic handles are suitable for everyday use but avoid prolonged exposure to high temperatures or solvents to preserve material integrity.
