For cutting fabric, leather, but also paper, the black scissors offered here are recommended by the manufacturer NewXing. But what does the product actually consist of and what are its advantages and disadvantages compared to the competition? We wanted to know this in more detail and took a close look at the facts.
How is the equipment?
The NewXing tailor’s shears offered here weigh about 250 grams. One of the reasons for this is probably its unusual material: it consists of manganese steel. Other scissors are usually made of stainless steel. According to the manufacturer, the product is thus harder and sharper than others, the cutting tip is flattened and the handle with two differently sized grip holes is ergonomically shaped. The scissors, which are 25.5 centimetres long in total, are completely black in colour. The product comes with a thread cutter with black tips and a gold-plated handle. We award 4 of 5 stars.
What are the usage characteristics?
Especially for cutting fabrics, but also for art projects and for cutting through hard paper, the scissors offered here by NewXing are recommended. They are quite heavy in weight, but apparently sharp and also suitable for cutting through several layers at once. The users on amazon, who have evaluated the product so far, praise the scissors as lying well in the hand and also suitable for leather. The included thread cutter, on the other hand, is rather considered a mediocre decorative accessory. We award 4 out of 5 stars.
What is the price-performance ratio?
Currently you can get this model for 20 Euros in the online shop of Amazon. The price of the tailor’s shears offered here is quite average. For the fact that it is delivered together with a thread cutter, the money demanded seems to be very fair, but in practice, the thread cutter does not provide much added value. We award 4 of 5 stars.
What is the conclusion?
Especially for hobbyists who handle fabrics and other materials, the black manganese steel scissors offered here can be a good choice with the supplied thread cutter. Although they are quite heavy to hold, they can cut through several layers at once and the price NewXing charges is fair on average. We award a total of 4 out of 5 stars based on product description and customer reviews. At Amazon we currently find 0 (not yet) customer reviews, which give an average of 0 (not yet) stars.
