These scissors easily cut up to about 5-6 ounce leathers. The blades have razor-sharp edges. These professional quality shears are well balanced and have a cutting stability that will last for years.
The medium-carbon stainless steel blades are resistant to corrosion and provide a balance between hardness and strength. The blades wear well with a strong edge retention and a moderate strength that prevents chipping. Care for them by keeping them clean and dry, and oil the blade joint every few months. Use with caution.
