Don’t you hate it when batting gets snagged on the pointed end of your scissors? Well, not anymore!
Linda’s and Famore teamed together to bring you the best shears starting from a fine grade steel which is hot forged, then inspected by cutlery artisans to meet exact quality standards. The result is a scissor of uncompromised quality and craftsmanship that will last a lifetime.
SCISSOR CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Famoré scissors and shears are precision instruments that will last for generations with simple care. Wipe blades with a soft, dry cloth after each use. Once a month, apply a small amount of oil like sewing machine oil on the screw of the scissors on both sides. Run a small bead of oil up each blade. Open and close the scissors several times, wiping the scissors clean with a soft, dry cotton cloth. This allows the scissor ride to be free of debris and will ensure a sharper blade longer.
