Jewellers Shears, 17.8 cm Straight Blade, PVC Handle, Metal Snips for Jewellery Making
These 17.8cm jewellers shears deliver precise, clean cuts for shaping non-ferrous sheet metal and wire at the bench.
What it does
Designed for control, these snips make straight, continuous cuts right to the tip thanks to their sharp, stainless steel blades. The single continuous loop handle, finished with a bright blue PVC coating, provides a secure and comfortable grip for repetitive trimming and sizing tasks. They offer the leverage needed to cleanly cut soft metals like sterling silver, gold, and copper up to 0.8mm thick, as well as craft wire and thin leather.
How to use it
- Position material firmly between the blades.
- Squeeze handle for a smooth, continuous cut.
- Wipe clean and store dry after use.
Who it's for
An essential tool for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metal artists. Whether you're trimming blanks, sizing stock, or working on intricate designs, these shears offer precise control. They are ideal for hobbyists and intermediate makers seeking a reliable alternative to less precise cutting methods for soft metals and thin craft materials.
