Product Details


The Spring Self Opening Scissors are specially designed to make everyday cutting tasks easier for people with arthritis, weakened hands or reduced dexterity. The built-in spring mechanism automatically reopens the blades after each cut, reducing the effort required and making repetitive cutting more comfortable.

Large ergonomic handles provide a secure, comfortable grip and greater control during use, while the durable stainless steel blades are suitable for a wide range of kitchen and household tasks. A convenient safety lock keeps the blades securely closed when the scissors are not in use, helping to improve safety during storage. A latex-free version is also available for users with latex sensitivities.

    Easy to use

    Review by G.E Posted on 08/10/2024 14:57:36
    Very easy to cut with. Bit fiddly to lock and unlock so for my mum we just always leave them open.

    Great scissors/shears

    Review by D Walders Posted on 08/10/2024 07:26:18
    This is the second pair of shears I have bought from this superb store. They make it so easy for me to use them with my arthritic hands. Price is very good as is fast postage.

    Yet another pair of these scissors, only because I will keep trimming the stalks of flowers, not a good thing. New ones for best, old ones for stalks. Very easy to use, mine travel on my inside rollator, always with me and forever useful.

    Great to use

    Review by d. walders Posted on 25/04/2024 07:14:11
    Tried these for first time today and they are so comfy to use as normal scissors are very uncomfortable but these cause no discomfort whatsoever. I would wholeheartedly recommend these to all.
