## Description

KAI 5135 Black 5 1/2 inch embroidery scissors

Review: Incredibly sharp and precise - They aren’t as cute as the crane scissors, but they’re the sharpest and most precise I’ve ever used. I have two pairs, one for metal threads and one for regular, and I’m amazed how well the pair I use for metal threads is holding up. The metal is actually quality so they can have an incredibly thin blade that is still strong and holds an edge. Worth the price, better than dozens of other pairs I’ve tried.
Review: A scissor that truly cones in very handy. - Perfect scissor for material, paper and basically a lot more. I’ve been very happy and it cuts great. Really very sharp.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can the pivot pin be tightened?**
A: Yes. It is a slot-head screw. It is not pin construction.

**Q: Are these good for cutting button holes?**
A: Haven't tried that but I'm sure they are because they are very sharp and pointed.  Where some scissors the tips are sort of rounded but these are not.  Also the blades are thin enough to get into the button hole space.

**Q: What is the length of the cutting blade on the embroidery scissors?**
A: The cutting edge is 2-1/16 inch.

**Q: One reviewer said his purchased showed manufactured in Vietnam. How do you explain that?**
A: The image provided with this listing shows it on the back of the box: MADE IN VIETNAM.
