Your little helper for embroidery and chores

The 4″ print embroidery scissors are a decades-old pattern, rediscovered and remade in Sheffield. Their sharp, precise tips and strong construction make them a crafter’s dream, providing excellent thread snipping and trimming performance. For general, everyday use, the print embroidery scissors are a great little handyman to have around the home.

Some of our stock of this model is made from decades-old blanks, which have been in storage at our workshop all this time, waiting patiently to be brought to life. And to preserve the print embroidery scissors for the future, we’ve also secured exclusive access to the die and tooling for the scissors, so we can forge as many new pairs as our customers desire.
