The WASA Embroidery & Sewing Scissors is ornamental scissors with finely tapered blades for clean cuts right to the tip. Available in 3.5", 4.5", 5.5". Versions: nickel-plated.
WASA ornamental scissors are classic embroidery and needlework scissors with a long tradition. The handles are richly decorated – with scrolls, figures such as the stork or rooster, or classic patterns – and, depending on the model, nickel-plated, gold-plated or black.
The blades taper finely and cut threads, yarns and fine fabrics cleanly right to the tip. Many models are hand-forged and made as historically faithful reproductions.
WASA stands for Waldmin & Saam: the scissor manufacturer was founded in Solingen in 1907 by August Waldmin and Friedrich Saam and is still known today for forged quality scissors – above all embroidery and needlework scissors.

Frequently asked questions
Why does the screw look dark?
The historically reproduced models use a blued screw whose colour can range from bluish silver to black. This is intentional and not a defect.
