Full details
The Joseph Joseph PlusCut General Purpose Scissors are an essential tool for home and office users who require a versatile cutting solution for paper, fabric, and craft materials. Their primary benefit is the combination of precision Japanese stainless steel blades and a unique integrated box cutter, which keeps the main blades clean from adhesive residue when opening packages. While these scissors excel in everyday tasks, users should note that they require manual care, as they are not suitable for dishwasher cleaning.

FAQs
Can I put these scissors in the dishwasher?
No, these scissors should be hand washed and dried thoroughly to protect the steel blades and handle materials.
What materials are these scissors best suited for?
They are ideal for paper, cardboard, fabric, and general craft materials.
Why is there an extra blade in the handle?
The integrated box cutter allows you to open boxes and tape without using your main scissors, protecting them from sticky adhesive residue.
Are the handles comfortable for left-handed users?
The soft-grip handles are designed for a comfortable, ergonomic fit for most users, though performance may vary depending on individual hand shape.
How do I clean sticky residue off the blades?
Use a soft cloth dampened with warm soapy water to gently wipe the blades; avoid harsh scrubbers that could scratch the steel.
Troubleshooting
Scissors feel stiff or difficult to open
Check the hinge for debris or adhesive residue; clean with a damp cloth and ensure it is fully dry.
Box cutter blade feels dull
Ensure the handle channel is free of cardboard dust or debris that might be obstructing the blade's full extension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These scissors require no setup; they are ready for use immediately upon removal from packaging. To maintain the integrity of the blades, avoid cutting through metal or extremely thick materials that exceed the tool's intended capacity. Care is straightforward: hand wash the scissors using mild dish soap and water after use. Always dry the blades thoroughly with a soft cloth before storing them in a drawer or tool caddy to prevent oxidation and ensure the hinge remains smooth.
