KAI5210: 8-inch Dressmaking Shear with Blade Cap

Love these Kai fabric scissors. They are just the right weight for me to use for a long period of time cutting off hems of bridesmaids dresses to alter. Other scissors are heavier and cause fatigue. These are sharp - so be sure to close before setting down, I accidently caught a piece of the lining fabric while placing down scissors open and it sliced a nick in the fabric! These are the 2nd paid of Kai products I have - the embroidery scissors are also very sharp.

These scissors are sharp and stay sharp. Love both sizes.

This is my second pair of Kai shears. These shears stay sharp for a long time and can be professionally resharpened easily.

Great pair of scissors for the price. Nice that they come with a cover. Very sharp and not heavy. Haven't used a lot so I cannot give a review as to the quality of their sharpness over time but expect they will be fine.

The media could not be loaded. My wife got these scissors for sewing (not professional, just mending things and doing little projects). They cut fabric very well. She would have liked the blades to be longer and the handles to be different - they are uncomfortable to use/hold. She wouldn't get them if she was a pro seamstress, but they are good enough for her modest needs.

These are exactly what I was looking for. Super sharp, affordable and comfortable to hold. Great product!

I love my Kai scissors, why? They fit my hands (large for a woman) very well, their action is smooth, balance is great, and best of all, the cutting edges sharp--and stay sharp! None of this "I was used to cut something else so I can't cut this" behavior I have observed in many other scissors. I bought the embroidery scissors as well, and their tiny tips can reach in and snip threads clean. They are absolutely my best embroidery scissors. I threw out all the others as it was so difficult to cut ends of threads clean (easier needle threading as well as cutting). I bought an extra pair of the dressmaking shears and gave them to a friend who loves them as well! Great product, I hope you love this brand too. And I was not paid nor reimbursed nor offered or given any kind of incentive for my review. I just want to share my experiences to help others.

For the price, these are great scissors. They cut cotton well and they pretty comfortable to use. I like the blade cover and it snaps in place well. The rubber handles are a bit bulky though. The scissors do glide when cutting. I own a set of Zwilling Superfection Classic Dressmaking Scissors 230. These are $45 now on Amazon but I got them for $22 awhile back. They are not bulky and have a great handle design that's like a textured plastic. They don't provide a blade cover so I use a leather sheath. Similar to the Kai in the sense that both have a softer feel than traditional solid metal which over extended use are painful to use. The zwilling set is better at cutting at all aspects over the Kai. They are smoother and cuts through thick cloth easier. The Kai set is a better deal but if I wanted the best, go for the zwilling.
