Gingher Knife-edge Dressmaker Shears are meticulously crafted of premium, forged steel with long, precision-ground blades that cut multiple layers of fabric easily, all the way to the tip. The longer cut length makes them the ideal craft scissors for cutting patterns, trimming seams, or cutting long swaths of fabric. The double-plated chrome-over-nickel blade finish is both striking and durable. A bent handle design helps hold fabric flat on your work surface for smooth, comfortable, mistake-free cutting. These Fiskars scissors also include a protective nylon sheath for storage among your other quilting supplies when not in use.
