Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Super Snips different from regular craft scissors?
The blades fold into a built in silicone sleeve, so there is no separate cap to lose and no exposed blade poking through your project bag.
Are these good for needlepoint finishing?
Yes. The short, precise blades are sized for trimming canvas threads close to the edge, which is exactly the kind of detail work self-finishing needlepoint calls for.
Can I bring these when I travel?
Their compact 2cm blade makes them easy to tuck into a travel bag. Carry on scissor rules vary by airline and country, so it is worth checking current guidelines before you fly.
How do I clean and care for them?
Wipe the blades with a dry cloth after use. Avoid soaking the silicone sleeve, and keep the pivot screw dry to prevent rust.
What colors are available?
Super Snips come in ten colors across two palettes: Brights (Poppy, Fuchsia, Clover, Daffodil, Ink) and Pastels (Ballet, Lilac, Sky, Butter, and Sage)
