The scissors comprises oblique slots in a lower handle, fasteners in the oblique slots, a rear elongate slot in a lower ridge of a board, and a pin slidably defined in the elongate slot. In a closed state, fasteners are slid to a lowest point in the oblique slot to be urged by the ridge so that the ridge is prevented from further rearward movement with energy stored in a resilient piece. In a cutting operation press the lower and the upper handles against each other for causing the board and the blade to close on the sheet stock. The ridge pivots in response to pivoting the lower handle. Pin slides along the elongate slot to move the ridge. A rear portion of the board moves upward. A pointed end of the blade closes on a forward end of the board.
