These self-opening scissors are perfect for anyone working with textiles, as they are great for thread snipping. Yet, their zirconium oxide ceramic blades are stronger than stainless steel. This makes them strong enough to cut lightweight, 8 kg (18 lb), zip ties. The blades on these scissors are sharpened with a unique double-angle grind that results in a finger-friendly edge that is safe to the touch when it comes to incidental contact. Slice tools emphasize safety, but even though you can safely touch the blade edges, they are as sharp as they need to be for their intended cutting tasks. Like any blade, even our safety blades can cut your skin if enough force and acceleration are applied. Exercise the same caution you would use with any blade. A mere 144 mm (5. 68 inches) long and weighing only 24 g (less than an ounce) these self-opening scissors are extremely portable. They’re designed so that the blades are always in the open position. You just squeeze them closed to cut, which requires much less muscle effort than the push-and-pull action required to operate ordinary scissors. This makes them great for those with arthritic hands or other manual dexterity challenges. They have an ambidextrous design that makes them easy to use by either left- or right-handed people. The safety cap keeps the blades closed when not in use, and protects your fingers. Remove the cap and the blades automatically open: they’re ready to make a cut. At the other end of the scissors, there is a lanyard hole, so they can be kept handy by wearing them around your neck. The safety cap fits over the lanyard hole while you are using the scissors, so it doesn’t get lost. The scissors are housed in an extremely strong glass-filled nylon handle. This handle, reinforced with glass fibers, keeps the scissors from being damaged if they are dropped or banged against other surfaces. Their durability makes these scissors an investment in a lifetime of safe cutting.

Nice, but not for everything
These are well-made, feel good in the hand, and the design has many useful features; it's been thought out well. There are cutting jobs at which it's going to excel, and those that it's not going to do at all. For example, it'll cut thread, string, paper, even light cardboard, with ease, but something like velcro, it won't cut at all. For my purpose, which is light-duty cutting of things on an electronics workbench, it's a nice solution.

Beautiful and sharp ceramic scissors!
Pretty amazing ceramic scissors - these feel like lightweight plastic, but don't be fooled. These are serious tools and I have them in the kitchen, my garage toolbox, and in my office. Comfortable and precise, these are just very useful implements.

Perfect for pool work
I was looking for scissors that wouldn't rust when I put them in my pool bin with the chemicals. All other scissors turn into a mess, very quickly when exposed to the chemicals (as you would expect). Not these! Worth it to me, for my specific use case.For others, they are definitely a smooth and sharp pair of scissors, but I'll let you be the judge of whether they are worth the price for you or not :)

Limited in what it can cut
There are some things that just slip right out of them without being cut. Anything it can cut though, it handles very well.

I love these scissors
This is my first pair of ceramic scissors and I have to say I'm very impressed. If they're all like this I'll never buy anything else ever again. These are very precision and feel very comfortable in my hand. While they won't cut your hand they cut paper like a scalpel. Very precise.

Extremely loose jointed
Unlike the large pair of ceramic bladed Slice scissors that I also own, these arrived extremely loose jointed and while hand manipulation can make it cut at the back of the blade, it just bends the paper without manipulation. There is a +1mm gap at the pivot point, way larger than on the large pair which snicks in contact the entire length of the blade. Strangely, the tips snick easily through paper.
