Abstract: A pinking shears having a pair of blades pivotally connected together by a bolt and having cooperative teeth formed along their leading edges and having handles at the ends of the blades opposite said teeth. A non-metallic spacer and pressure producing ridge member is located between the blades and has an apertured spacer portion through which the bolt extends and which serves to provide rough blade separation. The member also has a pressure producing ridge located at the handle side of said bolt and for bearing against the blades to produce cutting pressure between the teeth of the blades. The blades have tapered leads which cooperate with one another as the shears are closed to provide gradual smooth engagement of the blades.

Abstract: Device for sharpening of scissors, consisting of a disk-shaped body (1) provided with two lengthy openings (2,3) for the scissor blades (8). The openings are on one long side and on one short side limited by sharpening means (4,5) consisting of round pins. The openings (2,3) are positioned so in relation to each other that the active faces of the sharpening means (4) on the long sides, which act upon the inside of the cutting edges, are in line with each other.

Abstract: A fastening arrangement for plastics handles of scissors and equivalent in constructions in which the plastics handle is die-cast around a tang at the end of the blade-shaft. The tang has such a generally curved shape that on the outside of the blade-shaft there will be a rather thick plastics layer at the end of the tang, and, correspondingly, on the inside of the blade-shaft there will be a rather thick plastics layer at the root end of the tang.
