FAQs
Are these scissors suitable for left-handed users?
The Mikki Coat Scissors are designed for right-handed use, featuring an ergonomic finger rest for right-handed grip.
Can I use these scissors on cats?
Yes, these scissors can be used on cats for similar grooming purposes, provided the cat is accustomed to being groomed.
How often should I sharpen these scissors?
Sharpening frequency depends on usage. For regular home use, professional sharpening once a year is generally sufficient. For heavy professional use, more frequent sharpening may be needed.
What is the main benefit of the micro-serrated edges?
The micro-serrated edges help to grip the fur, preventing it from slipping and allowing for more precise and controlled cuts, especially on fine or smooth coats.
Can these scissors cut through mats?
These scissors are not designed for cutting through severe mats. Attempting to do so can damage the blades and pose a risk to the pet. For matted fur, it's best to use a de-matting tool or consult a professional groomer.
What is the purpose of the moulded stop?
The moulded stop is a safety feature designed to prevent accidental over-cutting of the skin or too much fur removal in one snip.
Troubleshooting
Scissors feel stiff or difficult to open/close.
Apply a drop of grooming scissor oil to the pivot screw and work the blades back and forth. Ensure no hair is caught in the pivot.
Blades are not cutting cleanly.
Wipe the blades clean and check for any obstructions. If the problem persists, the blades may need professional sharpening.
Rust spots appear on the blades.
Gently clean the rust spots with a soft cloth and a small amount of rust remover designed for scissors. Ensure the scissors are thoroughly dried and oiled afterward.
