Product Details


These Self Opening Scissors are useful for people that have finger and hand strength or dexterity problems.

The design of the handles allows the entire hand to be used to cut. They work for both left and right-handed people.

This means more leverage can be applied with less strain, and the user enjoys greater control.

The blades of the Self Opening Scissors are made from stainless steel for strength and durability.

A spring mechanism automatically re-opens the blades after each cut.

Key User Benefits


  • These all-purpose scissors are easy to use. Squeeze then relax the hand as the handles spring open for the next cut.
  • The scissors are operated with the whole hand, not just the fingers, making them ideal for persons with thumb injuries or decreased hand strength.

Product Specifications


  • Overall Length: 222mm (8 3/4 inches)
  • Blade length: 89mm (3 1/2 inches)
  • Can be used with your left or right hand
  • Precision ground stainless steel blades

    Easy to use

    Review by B Bryant Posted on 16/02/2017 08:00:37
    I ordered the self opening scissors for my sister who was finding it difficult to hold scissors due to loss of muscle strength - she has leukemia and kidney problems. She finds these much easier to hold and manoeuvre than conventional scissors, and is very pleased with them. I was worried that she would find the clasp which holds the blades together difficult, but she has no problem with opening and closing it. She is very pleased with them, and would rate them as 5 out of 5.
