Lightweight and capable, the 3.75″ carbon steel blades will never let you down. Hot forged and hand made in Sheffield, by craftsmen with traditional techniques.

The die for the 8.25″ is an old Sheffield pattern unearthed and revitalised.

Highly skilled craftsmen making supreme quality products.

This means that the top bow and the bottom bow (the loops held by your thumb and fingers), are offset and respectively above and aligned with the blades. Hence, sidebent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTailors and dressmakers often need to make long cuts in fabric, while working on a tabletop. This gives us the reason to make \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003escissors and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eshears with a sidebent design. If the craftsperson were using shears with straight shanks, then the bottom bow would catch against the edge of the table, making the shears much harder to use. With a sidebent design, the user can rest the shears flat against the tabletop, enabling smooth, efficient cutting. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSidebent scissors designs were patented by a Sheffield scissors-maker, Thomas Wilkinson, in 1800. The inventor’s firm, Thomas Wilkinson \u0026amp; Sons, received First Class Prize Medals at the Great Exhibition of 1851 and the Paris Exhibition of 1855. Still to this day, busy tailors owe a debt of gratitude to Wilkinson’s clever sidebent design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ernest Wright","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46647231807522,"sku":"wkv1788081238526","price":98.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/3855\/1842\/files\/825-left-handed-dressmaker-shears-ernest-wright_1.jpg?v=1788081242"},{"product_id":"milward-thread-snips-115cm","title":"Milward Thread Snips 11.5cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eCompact and precise, these 11.5cm thread snips are ideal for quick and accurate trimming.
