Gruffé Left-Handed Tailor's Shears, Nickel Plated, 8.25”

Gruffé Left-Handed Tailor's Shears, Nickel Plated, 8.25”
£25.00
Ex Tax: £20.83
A pair of nickel-plated carbon steel tailor’s shears made for those who are left hand dominant. In a classic side-bent model, for cutting accurately on a tabletop – the side-bent shape allows the scissors to lie as flat as possible against the tabletop, minimising inaccuracies. Manufactured with an adjustable nut and bolt pivot screw for easy cleaning and fine-tuned precision, with black-lacquered bows for a comfortable grip.

Made in Italy by Gruffé Cutlery Associates, an independent association of scissor and medical instrument manufacturers based in Como, north of Milan. Founded in 1961, Gruffé have been working closely with makers local to the Como area, enhancing consistency and quality within the art of drop-forged blades and instruments.

Avoid moisture, as these scissors can tarnish or rust if exposed. It is recommended that these scissors are stored in a dry place, and oiled occasionally if necessary. These scissors measure 22cm, with a blade length of 9.5cm.

By purchasing this item you are confirming that you are over the age of 18, and that we may contact you prior to dispatch in order to verify this. Orders including any bladed items will incur an additional courier age verification charge and legally require delivery to persons aged 18 and over.

Care Advice

Do not cut anything other than fabrics or threads to prevent premature dulling, and avoid moisture at all costs. Wipe with a soft cloth after use, and store in a dry environment. Fabric shears should be professionally sharpened when necessary — please don’t attempt to sharpen with tin foil!
