Care & Maintenance Guidelines
Fabric Only: To preserve the precision edge, avoid cutting hard materials such as metal, wire, or thick plastic. These shears are designed specifically for professional textile work.

Safety First: The blades are exceptionally sharp. Please store them securely and keep them out of reach of children and pets.

I hem a lot of jeans and my old craft scissors would always choke and chew up the flat-felled seams. These TONMA shears are a completely different animal. The weight of the blades does 90% of the work—you barely have to squeeze. Cut through six folded layers of heavy denim cleanly in one smooth motion, zero frayed threads. Worth every single penny if you work with heavy textiles.

Whoever thought of adding the upright support post deserves a raise. If you’ve ever spent hours cutting patterns on a wide cutting mat, you know the annoyance of trying to slide your fingers under flat, heavy shears to pick them up every 30 seconds. With these, they stay propped up, ready to grab. The balance is fantastic and the blades are scary sharp.

these are perfect for fabric! Cuts like butter! Awesome for the price!

These scissors are truly top notch-an incredible value for their durability and price. Just use caution, as they are extraordinarily sharp. They are made from solid steel, and with care will last a lifetime.

I’ve been using a standard pair of big-box store shears for years and thought hand fatigue was just part of quilting. Picked these up on a whim for a quilt batting project and my jaw literally dropped. They glide effortlessly. No snagging, no fabric bunching up between the blades, and cuts cleanly all the way to the very tip. Total game changer for my sewing room.

My hands aren’t as strong as they used to be, and squeezing dull scissors was giving me bad wrist aches. Yes, these shears have some substantial weight to them, but that heft is actually what makes them so easy on the joints. You just guide them along the cutting line and the weight carries the cut right through. Cuts like a hot knife through butter.
