What we liked

  • + Rated in the listing for leather and nylon up to 3 to 4 mm thick, which covers most garment and wallet weight hides
  • + R-blade design is meant to cut more effectively, and the compact 175 mm length suits curves and complicated patterns
  • + Ergonomic handle for a comfortable grip over long cutting sessions, from an established leather supply brand

Trade-offs

  • - At 175 mm overall these are short scissors, so long straight cuts across a hide are slower than with 10 inch shears
  • - The listing does not name the blade steel or say whether the pivot can be adjusted or the blades resharpened
