FAQs
Are these scissors suitable for right-handed users?
No, the blade geometry and handle design are specifically engineered for left-handed use.
Can I remove the finger rings?
Yes, the finger rings are removable to allow for a custom fit based on your finger size.
How often should I oil the pivot screw?
It is recommended to oil the pivot screw once a week for optimal performance.
What materials should I avoid cutting?
Avoid cutting paper, cardboard, or fabric, as these materials will cause the precision-ground blades to lose their edge quickly.
What is the benefit of the crane angle?
The crane angle allows your elbow and wrist to remain in a neutral position, which helps prevent repetitive strain injuries.
Troubleshooting
Scissors feel stiff during operation
Apply a drop of shear oil to the pivot screw and open and close the blades several times to distribute the lubricant.
Finger rings feel loose
Remove the inserts and re-seat them firmly, or replace them if the rubber material has worn down over time.
Blades are pulling hair rather than cutting
This indicates the blades may need sharpening; professional sharpening is recommended to maintain the precision edge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity and performance of your DMI Scissors, begin by adjusting the removable finger rings to your preferred tension level to prevent slippage during use. Always store the scissors in a dry, protective case when not in use to protect the precision-ground edges. Clean the blades regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove hair clippings and debris. It is recommended to apply a small drop of specialized shear oil to the pivot screw weekly to ensure smooth operation. Avoid cutting non-hair materials, such as paper or fabric, as these can dull the professional-grade blades rapidly.
