Classroom pack size

This 30-pack of Acme United blunt-tip scissors supplies a full classroom or group activity with one pair per child. The assorted colours help teachers distribute them quickly and keep sets organised. Each pair measures 5 inches overall and is designed for children aged four and up.

Safe cutting ergonomics

Moulded asymmetrical plastic handles fit both left-handed and right-handed users without forcing an awkward grip. The .3-inch blade height and 2.3-inch width keep the cutting geometry small enough for developing motor control. Stainless steel blades resist corrosion from glue residue or damp paper.

Blunt-tip safety constraint

The rounded tip prevents puncture injuries while still slicing paper, fabric and string cleanly. Buyers who need pointed tips for detailed craft work or older students should choose a different model.

Questions about this item

How do I hand these 5" blunt-tip scissors to a child so the moulded asymmetrical plastic handles sit correctly?

Place the scissors in the child's palm with the larger loop on top; the asymmetrical moulding fits either left- or right-handed grip without reorientation.

When will the stainless steel blades need attention after cutting paper, fabric and string in a classroom?

The stainless steel edges hold their edge for a long time; wipe them clean after each session and they rarely require sharpening.

What stops the 30-pack from being used continuously in a busy craft station?

The .3" blade thickness and blunt tips limit cutting force, so very thick card or layered fabric will stall the scissors first.
