Premax Optima Line Stainless Steel Tower Point Cuticle Scissors - Made in Italy Review

The Stainless Steel Tower Point Cuticle Scissors is Made in Italy. These items are handcrafted by adult artisans in Premana, Italy. This a superior quality nail scissor made in Italy that is made to last a lifetime. Did you know that scissor blade edges never actually touch each other? Instead, this sharpened blade edge focuses the force into a narrow area from two offset sides, which results in a shearing cut, rather than a pinching/crushing severance. The sharp blades and proper tension adjustment found in a good grooming scissor like this one will trim cuticles smoothly and neatly, without pulling, bending or tearing. Because this scissor is fine and thin it will cut the cuticle or hangnail just as closely. However, the blade on this tower point cuticle scissor is crafted to be extra narrow so it will easily trim hangnails and cuticles on narrow fingers, small hands or in tiny areas where maneuverability is very much needed. The formulation for high carbon stainless steel is precisely and carefully controlled to contain just enough iron, cobalt, chromium and other minerals so that it is just as strong as traditional high carbon steel but also is just as care free and rust resistant as common stainless steel. Open these scissors even a little and it is easy to see a beveled “platform” area around the joint. This special beveled area reduces the frictionable surface area of the joint, so that wear and tear is minimal and movement stays smooth over decades of use.
