Folding Scissors Are Superb

They take near zero space folded
  ( 11 Customer Reviews )

Today's Price:$55.90
Folding Scissors are beautiful and useful tools. We have seen them in Asia, but none of them were really any good. The trick is that they have to be formed and assembled with great care, or they won't fold and unfold easily. This takes experience and real quality control. It now appears that there is only one European source for these left: a small, personal workshop of a very experienced master cutler in Nogent, France. It is he who makes these for us.

They are simply beautiful, work smoothly, and fold right up to go in the leather case. We love these, and hope that the maker continues to produce for years.

Great gift; great to own

These scissors are a rare find. I have some folding scissors made in the USA twenty years ago, but they are no longer available. These are not only useful/practical but a keepsake of high quality. Worthy of engraving with the owner's name.

These are a very remarkable invention of a very useful tool for those who do needlework needing precision cutting tools. They are also very valuable for use for those doing needlework as they travel.

Folding Scissors
Reviewed By:  Lynne Andrews (Port Ludlow, WA) 
Dear Garrett Wade, This is my fourth and fifth pair of French folding scissors. My own pair,I bought in San Francisco almost 40 years ago and they have had tons of use and are still perfect. I am always so worried that you will stop having them and we will all be worst off for the disappointment. What fabulous instruments they are. Love them being in a 'leather' snap pouch too. Don't ever stop doing what you are doing so well. Your service is excellent and all your wonderful tools are the best quality. Ahhh... but back to these scissors..... they are a wonder and magical to hold in ones hand. I take them out of my purse just to hold them. Thanks for the great and fast service too.
