Self-Sharpening Nail Scissors

Beaver teeth remain sharp for life. These scissors work in line with the beaver tooth principle, in which the softer back of the tooth is subjected to greater wear than the extremely tough front. This results into a self-sharpening biting edge, hence the teeth will keep their sharp bite. The same holds true for these ingenious nail scissors, which are made from satinised, rustproof stainless steel. One side of the blade has an ultra-hard titanium nitride coating (70 HRC *). The other side is made of uncoated steel (57 HRC *). With each cut, the blades slide past each other. As a result, the scissors are not only sharp, but remain sharp forever and thus guarantee perfect, easy cutting.  This is also confirmed by the VPA Remscheid.**
Mostly made by hand in more than 40 stages. Precise, strong and extremely durable.
The curved cutting surfaces with extra sharp tips are made 100% accurately. This makes them even fine and sharp enough for cutting cuticles.
Winner of the “GERMANY AT ITS BEST” award, North Rhine-Westphalia.
Total length 9cm (3.5″). Weight 20g (0.7 oz). 
* HRC (Rockwell hardness test) is the international unit for the hardness of a material that is commonly used for knife blades.

**Comparison between the cutting performance of the same scissors with and without coating. For this purpose, the number of times the shears can cut a material properly was tested. While the uncoated scissors failed after 50,000 cuts, the test with the coated scissors was discontinued after more than 100,000 cuts, because its sharpness had not significantly decreased.
