  • How It Was Made
    To put what text you want here just click HOWand type, to add anIT image WAS click insert > image then drag it here/resize it and delete MADEthis text Scissors Scissors have two arms each with blades at one end and a round hole for the fingers at the other. These arms are pinned together with a screw or rivet which allows them to move and be opened and closed, sliding the blades against each other to cut. They are different from shears or spring scissors which are made from one piece of metal bent in half to make two arms, each with a blade at the end. Diagram of scissor parts The blades and bows of scissors vary enormously depending on their intended use and user. Blades can have one or both points which are: round, square, curved or pointed. Bows can be equal/unequal in size, straight or offset to one side (sidebent), higher than the blades (i.e. have a bent shank) and can be shaped and highly decorated. ‘Scissorsmyths’ or ‘Scissar makers’ and ‘shearsmiths’ were active in Sheffield from the early 1600s (see ‘Tweedale’s Directory of Sheffield Cutlery Manufacturers 1740-2010’ by G. Tweedale, 2010) and by the mid-1600s Sheffield was well known for its manufacture of steel and cutlery – table knives, trade knives, razors and scissors - taking advantage of the availability of water power, skilled labour, and the raw materials needed (see ‘A History of Sheffield’ by David Hey, 2005). In the 1700s and 1800s the cutlery industry grew, particularly after the invention of crucible steel by Benjamin Huntsman in the 1740s with an increase in both domestic and export trade.

  • What Are Fabric Scissors?
    What are fabric scissors? Fabric scissors or fabric shears as they are more commonly referred to are the main tool used for cutting out your fabric. There are various different types of fabric shears on the market which range from general purpose to a traditional tailors shears. Shears should cut cleanly and smoothly so the type you choose usually depends on what material you need to cut and what you find comfortable to use. If you are buying hand crafted shears, your choice will also be influenced by the shear manufacturers skill and the quality of steel used. Heavy fabrics such as leather and denim are easier to cut using shears that have longer handles or sharper blades. Synthetic fabrics tend to slip on smooth blades so a serrated pair for better control would be the answer. Elastic or pivoted shears offer precision cutting right to the tip of the blades. Most dressmakers shears are angled (or bent) to keep the blades flat on the table reducing disruption to your lay. But very angled shears can be awkward to use if you need to stretch across a table. Lightweight shears are recommended for occasional use where as drop forged shears are for more prolonged use. The size you choose should depend largely on what you find comfortable to use. If possible try to borrow a pair to handle them and see if they suit you before buying. They mustn’t be to heavy for comfort. If you are in doubt, then go for the larger size. The maintenance of scissors and shears is very important, yet often neglected.
