A traditional German pair of wick trimming scissors with long straight shanks and a short cutting blade, which cuts the candle's wick onto a semi-circular platform, to keep it safely off your table cloth. For use with dinner candles and similar. Made from forged carbon steel, fully nickel-plated, for a sharp and accurate cut.
Founded in 1907 by August Waldmin and Fritz Saam, Waldmin & Saam (AKA WaSa) are known particularly for the delicacy of their embroidery snips — many of WaSa's designs date back over a century or more. Each pair of WaSa scissors requires dozens of individual steps, with painstaking attention to the handcrafted precision worthy of the Solingen, “City of Blades”, standard. Handcrafted from the best steels, hot dropped forged, hardened, tempered, hand ground, plated, polished, and honed, these scissors are made by highly skilled craftsman — a trade learned from father to son for over one hundred years.
Overall length 14cm, with a blade length of 4cm, and a handle width of 5cm.
