I made these from a small billet left over from something else and my wife will probably get them if they turn out ok. They have only had a quick and rough polish to see how the pattern turned out and when finished will get a coffe etch for more contrast. they are going to be sewing sissors

I have finished the scissors finished today with a coffe etch and a bronze hinge pin. they cut paper like a lightsaber but the geometry is not just quite right yet towards the tip, I think they need to have a slight bit more curve in the cutting edge but overall happy with the result. I masked the cutting edge and an area around the pivot point with some of the wifes nail polish before the etch in the feric chloride as I wanted a deep etch and I left them in for over an hour.
