About this product

Spring-Loaded Left-handed Children's Scissors, 13cm / 5" – designed to open automatically after each cut, making them ideal for little hands or children who experience manual dexterity difficulty.

How is this scissor lefthanded?

There's no such thing as an ambidextrous scissor! And it's not as simple as just changing the handles over – as some companies have done. These correctly manufactured left-handed scissors have the blades reversed, so you can see your cutting line and get an accurate, clean cut.

A great teaching aid – children can focus on cutting rather than opening the scissor too. The spring can be retracted as cutting confidence grows.

Features:

  • Safety round-ended stainless steel blades
  • 5cm ruling on top blade
  • Comfort-grip plastic handles
  • Built-in spring opens scissors automatically when pressure is released

If your child finds it hard to reopen the blades after each cut, this spring-loaded design does it for them — see how it fits alongside our other options in our left-handed children's scissors buying guide.

Great product I shipped this product to US for my almost 4 year old son. He is left handed and had issues learning to cut. He is much better now. The only thing that it could open better feels like needs a little oil or DW. Ordered 3. Using all of them one at school one at home one extra. Great product.

Good for Beginners Bought these for my left handed 3-year-old. With the spring, she can more easily open and close them than regular scissors. They cut paper just fine. They also come with a plastic slip cover which is nice.

Best scissors I've ever had! I got a pair just like these (without the spring) when I was 5 or 6. I wouldn't go anywhere without them. Its fun to watch right handed people try to use them. I lost them when I was 29, and I miss them so much. finding a good pair of lefty scissor isn't easy, so when you do, don't lose them.

Great beginner scissors I've used other scissors with the ability to use them as self-opening or not, and they all have problems with the adjustable tab. These work much better. I'm an occupational therapist working in schools, and these are really handy for the pre-schoolers.
