Grooming Shears With Offset Handle


 Share

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to find grooming scissors with an offset handle (ie when the blades are parallel to a table-top, the handles are raised above the table top). They are used to cut around a dogs feet. I cant even find a picture of them using google! But I havwe seen them used ... so they must be available somewhere ......

Like this? :laugh:

linky

except they are out of stock :thumbsup:

Nope - but thanks for looking. These ones have the handle offset to the side of the blades. The ones I want have the handle offset above the blades.

ETA. I wish I could find a pic, but I cant even find that LOL!

I've got some offset ones BMP. You are welcome to come and try them out to see if they are what you like. I'll offer up a poodle as the guinea pig! :dancingelephant:

With the $AUS so strong at the moment, its a good time to order from the USA. Mine are Heritage brand from there. I've attached a linky..here they have a shot of some offset ones. Mine are Sabers. I've I had the cash, I'd go for Stilletos. I have curved and straight offset shanked ones.

I prefer offset shanks because the blades stay level with your fingers, giving you a good feel for where you are cutting. Heritage do pinks ones but not in offset shanks :dancingelephant:
