William Whiteley 8” Pinking Scissors
Experience precision and craftsmanship with the 8″ Wilkinson Pinking Shears.
These sidebent pinking shears feature a saw-tooth blade design, perfect for cutting fabric in a zig-zag pattern to prevent fraying, especially useful when working with woven fabrics. The sidebent design, first patented by Thomas Wilkinson in 1800, allows the shears to rest flat against the tabletop, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted cuts. This innovative feature, combined with the ergonomic handles and carbon steel blades, offers precision and control with every cut.
Ideal for dressmakers, tailors, and quilters, these shears are an essential tool for any sewing kit. Crafted with over 200 years of expertise, these shears reflect the legacy of Wilkinson’s pioneering scissor-making techniques, integrated into Whiteley’s renowned craftsmanship.
