Key specifications

How to use

Hold the scissors by the handles with your dominant hand, placing fingers and thumb in the appropriately sized openings. Position the material between the blades and apply steady, even pressure while moving the scissors along the cutting line to produce a straight cut. For best results with paper and lightweight materials, make continuous, controlled strokes rather than forcing a single large cut. After use, wipe blades clean and store the scissors in a dry place to maintain blade condition.

Usage recommendations

Use these scissors for general office, school and hobby cutting tasks; avoid cutting very hard or thick materials such as heavy cardboard, metal, or wire to prevent blade damage. Periodically inspect the blades for debris or adhesive buildup and clean with a dry cloth to maintain cutting quality.
