This is our THIRD pair of Perfect straight blade, multipurpose, scissors. Karen had lots of requests for a smaller blade of this style. They are great for cutting templates (freezer paper, Karen Kay Buckley’s Perfect Heat Resistant Template Plastic), fabric and fabric with fusible stabilizers. The blades are stainless steel.

And with a great new color, “Sea Foam”
