Measurements and specifications are given with care and in good faith. The actual model of scissor displayed on our website is photographed against a ruler to ensure you see the size and have the best guide to order the required length. We describe all items in details with as much specification as possible. Some manufacturers supply more details than others however we do our best to supply as much up to date information as possible. Any measurements and weights should be taken as approximate and these may be subject to small changes without prior notice as manufacturers can make variations on any model at any given time. Due to circumstances beyond our control notification may not be give, however we work hard to ensure updates are made at speed to our website. Some manufacturers include the finder rest in the standard measurement and some do not as that finger rest may be removable. At the time of sale the information given is as accurate and up to date as possible. If you have questions or need more clarification on any specification please contact us as we are happy to assist.

 

Specifications can change from one batch to another due to circumstances beyond our control. This could be material or finishes. Finishes on Hand Crafted pieces may carry markings which could be seen as cosmetic imperfection but this is a feature of hand crafted items by skilled craftsmen. These marks do not detract from the quality or working life of the scissor. This gives each piece unique individuality and the assurance of such talented handy work. These specifications are minor but and may or may not be noticeable to some individuals. This could relate to the actual size, shape, colour, edge, metal type, finish, finger rest etc. If you feel you need more detail on the individual item you are purchasing, please ask we are happy to discuss each piece in greater detail, especially on out unique handcrafted pieces.

Descriptions such as Silver, Gold, Chrome, Plasma, Titanium etc. refer to the colour or finish only, not the material that the items are crafted in.

Goods are described as accurately as possible and a high standard of quality control is in place as our manufacturers have been carefully chosen for the quality of the products. Items will have been checked and double checked, especially with regards to sharpness. None of our Scissors require sharpening or setting up before use as they are tested for sharpness and set up to the correct tension for use. Altering the tension can lead to damage so never reset the tension without advice. We are always happy to advise.

Each item will be checked and packed, lubricants are often present on the blades or in the screws for the protection of the product. Sometimes these lubricants can be seen and may not always be clear. These lubricants may also attract colouration and loose particles from the case or packing in transit. If this should happen, please just remove with a tissue and re lubricate ready for use. This should be accepted as standard practice.
