Shear Delight

The Cutting Edge

Given the choice between handing you or Vincent Van Gogh a pair of scissors, we’d take a minute to think it over.

No offense, but we remember that denim massacre you called “cutoffs.” And the time you gave your boyfriend a “side-hawk” (funny how that look never really took off).

Laser Scissors were made for you. A pin-thin beam of light attached to the cutting tool guides you to snip in a perfect line. So go ahead. Slice your coupons. Shear your wrapping paper. Make those invites to your sister’s baby shower from scratch. Your cutables will be more straightedge than Kirk Cameron holding a basket of kittens.

Just don’t get too carried away. There are some things that should be left to the experts — your bangs, for example.

They are, after all, dangerously close to your ears.
