I recently handled a pair of these Kyocera 3in Industrial Ceramic Scissors that a colleague brought into work and simply had to own a pair.  They are made from Zirconium which is a type of ceramic developed by the eggheads at Kyocera’s materials division so they will never rust and probably never dull.   The feel and sound of the scissors as the blades sweep past each other exemplifies precision.   There is  a depth of luster to the white blades that which creates a look that is both hand-crafted and faultlessly precise.  The styling is somewhat dated, but with the 80’s retro back in vogue, they almost look new again.  Yes they are expensive, but they are probably the last pair of scissors you’ll ever have to buy and a little hunting on E-Bay they can be had for about half the retail price.
