Designed to put adult cutting performance in still-growing hands, Fiskars Softgrip Student Scissors are larger than standard Kids Scissors but smaller than adult scissors, ideal for kids ages 12 and up. A comfortable Softgrip handle helps to improve grip and reduce hand fatigue during extended use. The stainless steel blades are great for a variety of general cutting tasks, with a lasting edge and pointed tips for improved cutting precision. The handle accommodates both right- and left-handed users and features a larger finger loop and an ergonomic thumb loop to provide a natural, more comfortable fit.
