Scissors were created and finely tuned for one purpose: To cut paper. They are a wonderfully simple and elegant design for this single task. A good pair of scissors is self sharpening, sturdy and long enough to cut straight lines in almost any type of paper. The problem is that people just don't have a need for this anymore. Out of all the things in my house that I use scissors for, cutting paper is the last of them. In order of usage, we use scissors for:
…None of which are the intended use of the product. I know that household with kids probably have more uses, even for cutting paper, but do adults ever need to have scissors at all? Any paper that I would need to split or separate already comes perforated. If I need a piece of paper for my printer, it already comes in a convenient size for my printer. I literally have no use for scissors in my home, other than opening packages, but for this purpose, scissors are actually pretty dangerous. When I slice something, I have to open the scissors completely, then actually hold the blade as I run the other end down the package. I know I could just get a box knife but that is not the point. I am just curious as to why nobody has invented a smarter, modern pair of scissors.
