The stainless steel blades and full-size length handle everyday cutting with a solid, weighty feel, while the gold-tone finish, playful engraved saying and soft matte handles make them a small joy to pick up. Boxed and ready to give, they're a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates useful things done beautifully.

What size are they?

About 19.7 cm long and 6 cm wide, a full-size pair for everyday desk and home use.

What can I cut with them?

Paper, card, ribbon, tape and light packaging. For thick cardboard, wire or heavy-duty materials, a utility cutter is a better choice.

Are they heavy?

They have a sturdier, weightier feel than lightweight plastic scissors, which gives a steady, controlled cut.
