Category: Jewellery Making Tools

Shears for cutting shaped blanks by hand — following a scribed curve through sheet metal, leather or fabric with control that long-bladed snips cannot give. The short blades turn tightly along a pattern line, and the S-shaped offset handles lift your hand clear of the workpiece, so the cut line stays visible right to the tip.

The blades are stainless steel and deliver a clean, powerful cut for a 5½-inch tool, working through a robust, flush-set pivot that keeps the action smooth without binding mid-cut. Gloss red vinyl coating on the handles gives a comfortable, secure grip. A dependable shear for jewellers, model makers and leatherworkers alike, stocked in the UK for immediate dispatch.

William ★★★★★

The curved red handles give you real leverage even when your hands get tired mid-project, and the short blade makes following a scribed line feel almost effortless. I've cut through 1mm sheet brass and thick leather so far, and the edge hasn't dulled a bit.

Thomas I. ★★★★★

Used these to cut a tight curve in 0.8mm copper sheet—the short blades followed the scribed line perfectly without any skipping. The curved red handles give a comfortable grip even after cutting a dozen blanks.

James P. ★★★★★

Cutting tight curves through 1mm brass sheet was way easier than I expected—the short blades really do follow a scribed line without wandering. The red handles are comfy to grip for a while, though my hand did get a bit tired after a long session.
