These hand Forged Medieval Scissors are made from iron using traditional forging methods, giving them a simple, functional look for historical and traditional craft settings. The long blades meet at a central pivot, while the large loop handles give a comfortable and secure grip during cutting.
The iron is left with a natural forged finish, where the subtle hammer marks, texture and tonal variations are visible. These characteristics give every pair an individual unique look.
Scissors and shears have a long history, with earlier spring-style shears being used in the ancient world. Pivoted scissors became popular in Europe and were familiar practical tools by the medieval and Renaissance periods.
Tools of this type were useful to tailors, textile workers and other craftspeople for cutting tasks. These medieval shears take inspiration from that straightforward historical shape while being practical for modern craft and camp use.
The strong iron construction makes these hand forged shears useful for a variety of everyday tasks. They can be used for cutting fabric, wool, thread, string, paper, thin leather and similar craft materials.
Their traditional look also makes them suitable for historical camps, medieval fairs, Renaissance events, LARP settings, theatre productions, film props and period-style craft displays.
Each pair is individually forged, so differences in shape, hammer marks, surface texture and finish are expected. These variations are part of the handmade character of the scissors.
The natural iron surface can gradually change with use and age. Proper care is recommended because untreated or naturally finished iron can develop rust when exposed to moisture.
Care Instructions
Note: These scissors are individually hand forged from iron. Small differences in dimensions, blade alignment, hammer marks, texture and finish may occur from piece to piece.
