✂️ Chinese Style Scissors – Short Red — Compact, Precise & Always-Ready

Meet the Chinese Style Scissors – Short Red: compact, quick-to-grab shears designed for fast, accurate snips in busy Kiwi kitchens, cafés, market stalls, craft rooms and baches. With a short blade for precise control and bright red handles for easy visibility, these scissors handle everything from herbs and spring onions to packaging, twine, pastry, nori and craft trims—without hogging space in your drawer or caddy.

Lightweight, ambidextrous and comfortable, they’re the everyday utility scissors you reach for first—on the line, at the prep bench, or on-the-go.

✨ Product Description: Small Form, Big Utility

Purpose-built around the traditional Chinese utility-scissor silhouette, the Short Red model focuses on accuracy, speed and comfort:

• Short, keen blades give tight turning and controlled tips for close work.
  
• Hardened stainless-steel edges resist corrosion and hold sharpness through daily snips.
  
• Ergonomic red handles (non-slip finish) improve grip and visibility in utensil crocks and tote kits.
  
• Springy, smooth pivot for low-effort cutting—even with repetitive tasks.
  
• Slim profile stows in apron pockets, knife rolls, tool bags or drawer organisers.
  

Note: Exact blade length and handle finish may vary slightly by batch; all models are specified for close-control trimming and general kitchen/craft duty.
