It is important to know

Before choosing Forpus 16.5 cm shears, it is essential to consider the type of work you most often perform in your business environment. The key is to understand which materials these shears are best suited for and where their capabilities begin to be limited. Pay special attention to the fact that one universal piece of tool rarely optimally covers all overhead tasks in a company.

• Office scissors are most effective for cutting paper and thinner materials; for more demanding tasks (e.g. cutting thicker cardboard or plastic), specialized knives are a better choice.
• With frequent use, comfortable, ergonomic handles are important to reduce hand fatigue – worth considering if the scissors are used for long periods of time in a row.
• Dull blades significantly reduce cutting accuracy and increase cutting effort - regular tool replacement or sharpening are key to long-term satisfaction.
• In an office environment, standardization of basic tools (separately for paper and packaging) has practical advantages, especially in larger groups of users.

In practice

🟢 Cutting paper and everyday documents

Very suitable – These office scissors are optimal for cutting paper, invoices, printouts and similar thinner materials in routine office work.

🟡 Opening packaging and cutting lightweight cardboard

Suitable with limitations – Lightweight cardboard and basic packaging are still feasible, but thicker or more resistant materials will require more force or specialized tools.

🔴 Frequent cutting of foil or thick plastic

Less suitable – The tool is not designed for regular cutting of more demanding materials, which can lead to faster blade wear or poorer results.

🟢 Occasional use for light creative and office tasks

Very suitable – Scissors are versatile for smaller projects and simple repairs in a business environment.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Are the scissors suitable for both left- and right-handed users?

The shape of the scissors is usually universal, but for specific ergonomically designed models, it is worth checking if they are also adapted for left-handed people.

How often does it make sense to change or sharpen scissors with regular use?

In regular business use, it is recommended to replace or sharpen the scissors when you notice that the cut is no longer smooth and more force is required to cut.

Are office scissors suitable for thick cardboard or plastic?

For thicker materials (e.g. harder cardboard, plastic), office scissors are less suitable - it is better to use a suitable knife or blade.
