Setup, Compatibility & Care

These scissors require no assembly and are ready to use out of the packaging. As a right-handed tool, ensure your thumb and fingers are comfortably seated in the offset handle grips.

Clean the blades regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove adhesives or debris, and store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup.
