Product Information

Full details

The Fiskars Classic Needlework Scissors (13cm) are designed for crafters and sewers needing precision cutting for detailed work. Their key benefit is the combination of ergonomic comfort and sharp, durable blades for accurate cuts. A potential caveat is their specific design for needlework, which might be less ideal for heavy-duty fabric cutting. These scissors feature precision-ground stainless steel blades, ergonomic handles, and are suitable for both left and right-handed users. They are also dishwasher safe for easy cleaning and come in plastic-free packaging.

Troubleshooting

Blades are not cutting cleanly

Ensure the blades are clean and free from debris. For persistent dullness, professional sharpening may be required, though the high steel hardness is designed for longevity.

Scissors feel stiff or difficult to open/close

Check for any obstructions or residue between the blades. Clean the pivot area. Avoid forcing the scissors if they feel excessively stiff.

Handles feel uncomfortable
