A pair of impressively formed scissors, specifically made for cutting through cardboard and other thick materials. Made from forged carbon steel, blued for protection, with black japanned handles, for comfortable handling. Long curved and cranked handles give extra leverage when cutting through stubborn materials.
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.
Blued steel scissors require special attention to prevent tarnishing and damage to the blades. Make sure to wipe clean after use and dry thoroughly if wet. Store dry and occasionally oil to protect from humidity.
Overall length 24cm, with a blade length of 5cm, and a handle width of 7.5cm.
