Anvil Curved Scissor

Recommended Posts

Sorry Norm I don’t have any Anvil brand scissors to compare. It doesn’t look right to me though. If you go to the John Stockard site and zoom this product’s pic they are fully closed.

I'm no "scissor expert" ... but that does NOT look right.

Kind of "pointless" if the scissors are sharpened to the tip and the tip doesn't cut anything.

Hi Norm,

 

If you just got those, I would send them back. Their site shows that pair, and they definitely are supposed to close all the way to the tips. If they're damaged enough to have one of the sides bent, who knows how that effected the stress on the screw or the correct alignment of the blades. Just my two cents...

 

Regards,

Mark
