The stork design of these scissors is centuries old. French midwives used them for cutting umbilical cords. Though midwifery became less common as time went by, women still kept these scissors in their sewing boxes, & the scissors evolved into embroidery scissors. A truly unique gift for handy left-handers! The scissors are 5 inches long, with 1-1/4" long blades, & very sharp. Imported. Custom made for Lefty's. What makes this scissor left-handed? Our scissors are all TRUE left-handed scissors, engineered with the left blade on top. There is no such thing as an ambidextrous scissor, because either the right or the left blade must be on top. TRUE left-handed scissors must be made that way at the factory. With a TRUE left-handed scissor, lefties can see what they are cutting, & have far greater control. This is essential for precise work.
