Curved Premax scissors from Kreinik
Curves can get you into some pretty tight spots—and that is why you need scissors with a curved blade, like this Premax pair available from Kreinik with or without serrated blades. It is perfect for using with turkey work in hand embroidery, or clipping sewing threads beneath the presser foot on your sewing machine. Use them for cutting at an angle when a straight-edged pair just can’t get close enough. Choose a serrated blade for cutting metallic threads (blades will stay sharp and you will get a cleaner thread cut). Contact Kreinik for more information.
