Its standout benefit is the combination of professional-grade blade sharpness and an ergonomic handle design that reduces hand fatigue during extended use.

FAQs
Can I use these shears to cut paper?
While they will cut paper, it is recommended to keep them for fabric use only to maintain the sharpness of the blades for as long as possible.
Are these shears suitable for left-handed users?
The ergonomic curved handle is designed primarily for right-handed comfort; left-handed users may find the handle orientation less intuitive.
How often should I have the blades sharpened?
Sharpening frequency depends on usage; however, for heavy professional use, an annual assessment by a professional sharpener is recommended.
Are these shears dishwasher safe?
No. Never put these shears in the dishwasher, as the heat and chemicals will damage the pivot and the blade edge.
What materials should I avoid cutting?
Avoid cutting wire, metal, plastic, or abrasive materials like sandpaper to prevent permanent damage to the blade edge.
Troubleshooting
Shears feel stiff or difficult to open
Apply a small drop of sewing machine oil to the pivot screw area and work the blades back and forth.
Blades are snagging or chewing fabric
Inspect the blades for small nicks or debris. Wipe the blades clean, and if the issue persists, the blade may need professional sharpening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Clauss Professional Shears, keep them in a clean and dry environment when not in use. These shears are compatible with a wide range of textile fabrics, papers, and thin craft materials. Avoid using them on abrasive materials like sandpaper or metallic wires, as these will dull the precision edge prematurely. After use, wipe the blades with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove fabric dust and debris. If you notice a buildup of adhesive or residue, use a non-abrasive cleaning agent. Periodically, apply a drop of machine oil to the pivot screw to keep the cutting action smooth and responsive.
