The same applies as to knives, namely manicure tools made of carbon steel can be hardened and sharpened better than if made of stainless steel - and they can be sharpened again later too. These scissors come from Niegeloh in Solingen, who have more than 65 years of experience in the production of tools for the care of hands and feet.
The blades and arms of their scissors and clippers are all set by hand and checked separately with a view to function and sharpness. This follow-up work means that blades are extremely fine and smooth in action.
Carbon steel is not rustproof, so these tools are plated with high-gloss nickel for protection. Nevertheless it is recommended that you briefly clean the blades with your thumb after use.
