Battery-powered scissors are a convenient tool for cutting various materials, including Kevlar® and fiberglass. They come in different designs and are suitable for different tasks, from cutting paper to sheet metal. Cordless shears are a great addition for those with joint or muscle conditions.
Battery-powered scissors, sometimes called electric scissors, are a convenient way to cut paper, tarp, cardboard, fabric, vinyl, burlap, or window screen. Some brands can even cut Kevlar® and fiberglass along with many other materials. Some types of cordless shears look like traditional shears and are used in the same way, but the added power makes cutting nearly effortless.
Scissors were originally created using metal connected to springs, and modern scissors didn’t make their mass-production debut until the 1760s. By the 1800s, hand-carved scissors were popular in Europe. Scissors are now easily manufactured and commonly found in most households. As modern technology grows, so do our everyday tools. Now cordless electric shears have provided an innovative new technique for an old idea.
Cordless scissors have a sleeker design than regular scissors and are often able to be used interchangeably between the right and left hand. The scissors feature a sharp blade that will need to be replaced every few months and can be activated by simply pressing the handles. They are an excellent choice for cutting paper, coupons or crafts.
Other types of cordless shears are often referred to as simply electric shears. These scissors have an easy to grip handle and are best suited for the toughest jobs. They offer a comfortable, firm grip for more control and less chance of slipping. Instead of a four-finger press to turn the device on, these feature an on and off switch. Some brands can be table mounted for stationary use.
Cordless shears are used for larger projects. Powered by an 18-volt motor, the shears can cut through wood, plastic, and sheet metal. The shears prove more versatile, with a 360-degree swivel head and are shaped more like a power drill than a pair of scissors.
Cordless scissors, or shears, are a complement to any sewer bag and are useful for multiple quantities that need to be cut, though traditional scissors may be a better choice for smaller projects that require more precision. They’re also a convenient addition for anyone with arthritis or other joint or muscle conditions that make it more difficult to navigate with ordinary clippers.
