For this week’s #tooltalktuesday I wanted to show off my Joyce Chen Unlimited Scissors and talk about how I have found them useful in the studio. When I need to trim bezel wire or a thin backplate, these are my go-to scissors for the job! I have also used them to cut bits of solder or other wires. They are extremely sharp! I found out while researching this post it is due to the carbon content in the steel, it is double
or even triple the amount compared to normal stainless steel scissors. They are also formulated to be corrosion resistant! People use these scissors for cutting things like bones and branches 💪 They retail for about $21-$26 so I think they are a reasonable price for a long lasting, multipurpose scissor. I personally would not go thicker than 22g sheet when cutting with these! Shoutouts to @benchtooljunkies who sent me these scissors a few months back in one of their subscription boxes! They are sold out so I’ll link where you can get them on Amazon for those interested! As someone who also does a lot of crafting and gardening these are just bomb scissors to have around! Anyone using them already? Comment below 👇 #metalsmithsociety #jewelrymakingtools #jewelrytooltalk #joycechenscissors
