Fri4Free 9" Zig Zag Pinking Shears

How to choose pinking shears

1. 1Tooth size and blade length — A larger tooth cuts a deeper zigzag and travels faster down a long seam allowance; a smaller tooth is neater on lightweight cotton and around curves. A mid-size pair suits a beginner better than the biggest one on the shelf.
2. 2How heavy they are — Pinking shears carry more steel than ordinary scissors, and pinking every allowance in a garment is hard on your hand. Weight and handle shape are what decide whether you finish the job or leave half of it raw.
3. 3Whether they are spring-loaded — Some pairs open themselves between cuts. If your hands tire or ache, that is worth more than any other feature in this category; if they do not, it is a preference rather than a reason to spend more.
