Specifically designed for left-handed users, Gingher True Left-hand Knife-edge Dressmaker Shears are meticulously crafted of premium, forged steel with long, precision-ground, knife-edge blades that easily cut multiple layers of fabric, all the way to the tip. Their longer cut length is ideal for cutting patterns, trimming seams or cutting long swaths of fabric, and a double-plated chrome-over-nickel blade finish is both striking and durable. A bent handle design helps hold fabric flat on your worksurface for smooth, comfortable, mistake-free cutting. These shears also include a protective nylon sheath for storage.
