No. Cutting paper or cardstock will dull the precision-ground edges very quickly, making them ineffective for fabric.
The dressmaking scissors are 23cm long, and the thread snips are 10cm long.
If properly maintained and used only on fabric, they will remain sharp for a long time. If they become dull, use a professional sharpening service.
The handles are ergonomically shaped for general comfort, but they are designed with a standard geometry that typically favors right-handed usage.
Never submerge them in water. Always wipe them clean after use and keep the blades lightly oiled.
Apply a tiny drop of sewing machine oil to the pivot screw area and open/close the blades several times to work the lubricant in.
Gently buff the area with a soft cloth and a small amount of sewing machine oil. Ensure they are kept dry moving forward.
Because these tools feature high-quality steel blades, they are not designed to be washed in water, as moisture is the primary cause of rust.
