ABSTRACT:
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there are provided scissors having cold stamped scissor blade elements which do not include any bend in the shank of either blade element, the difference in level of the respective blade elements relative to one-another being compensated for by having plastic insert rings mounted on each of opposite sides of each blade element's metal ring support, with the upper blade having its lower plastic insert of greater thickness than its upper plastic ring insert, and with the lower blade having its upper plastic ring insert of greater thickness than its lower ring insert, such that the unitary handle in the assembled state of one blade element is on the same level as the unitary handle in the assembled state of the other blade element in so far as respective upper surfaces extending in a common plane and respective lower surfaces extending in another common plane. By virture of the utilization of plastic ring inserts of different thickness for upper and lower ring inserts for each respective blade element's support ring, there is avoided the costly operation of bending one of the shanks of one of the blade elements as well as avoiding any need for a subsequent aligning of the blade element after a prior art bending operation, since because no shank bending is required by the present invention the blade element remains in alignment. Accordingly, the novel construction made possible by a process of lesser steps and cost of production results in high quality scissors at competitively low consumer cost.
