FAQs
Can I use these shears in the dishwasher?
While technically dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing to maintain the sharpness of the blades and the longevity of the finish.
Are these shears suitable for left-handed users?
The ergonomic design is optimized for a universal grip, though the blades are traditionally aligned for right-handed use.
What is the material used for these scissors?
They are crafted from high-quality forged stainless steel.
Can these shears cut through heavy cardboard?
Yes, they are robust enough to cut through standard food packaging and cardboard, though they should not be used for thick metal or wire.
Do these shears require regular sharpening?
They feature high-quality steel that retains its edge longer than standard shears, but they should be sharpened professionally if you notice resistance when cutting.
Troubleshooting
Shears feel stiff or difficult to open
Check the pivot screw for debris. A tiny drop of food-grade mineral oil at the pivot point can help restore smooth operation.
Visible water spots on the blades
Wipe with a stainless steel cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and water, then dry immediately with a clean microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shears arrive ready for immediate use. No assembly or calibration is required. To maintain the integrity of the forged steel and the comfort of the grip, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Rinse with warm water and mild soap after use. Avoid using abrasive sponges that may scratch the finish.
- Drying: Thoroughly dry the blades with a soft cloth immediately after washing to prevent water spots.
- Storage: Store in a dry area or a knife block slot. Avoid storing in a drawer with loose metal objects that could dull the blades.
- Sharpening: While these shears hold their edge exceptionally well, professional sharpening is recommended periodically if used on abrasive materials.
