The stainless steel of the scissor blades is heated, forged and tempered to retain the fine cutting edge over a lifetime of use. The purity of the stainless steel ensures it will be free of corrosion in its home use environment.

Many products have had to be made for use by either right or left-handed people and this has been so for scissors. Now, the function of the blades and the ergonomic handle design allows the Sewline scissors to be used in either hand. The Sewline scissors cut both ways.
