Vannas Spring Scissors, 8cm Long, 5mm Blades
Our vannas scissors are specialized spring scissors designed for precision cutting and often used by scientific researchers. They are named after the Swedish scientist Gunnar Vannas who invented them in the 1940s. Compared with other spring scissors, vannas scissors are distinguished by their delicate, thin, sharp tips. The slender, pointed tips allows for precise cutting with minimal damage to surrounding tissues. Manufactured with surgical grade stainless steel, these scissors are durable and resistant to corrosion.
