These BPA- and lead-free scissors feature comfortable finger grips, an ambidextrous design and easy-to-use handles for large and small hands alike. The blades' pointed tips are designed to puncture material. This makes it easy to initiate a cut in the middle, rather than at the edge, of the material. Equipped with Slice's patent-pending finger-friendly blade edge, these blades are safe to the touch. The 35-millimeter blades effectively cut through a wide variety of materials and last up to 11-times longer than metal blades. These scissors are suitable for craft and home materials, as well as industrial materials like flexible plastics, copper wiring and Kevlar-reinforced fabric. Blades are oil-free, chemically inert, non-magnetic, maintenance-free and never rust.
