Are these scissors curved or straight? Also are they stainless steel?

They are stainless steel, have a slight curve, and rounded ends. We own a few pairs of the various Tweezer man scissor styles and rate all of them five stars.

Yes, the blades are slightly curved, surgical grade stainless steel and VERY sharp. It doesn't come with the serrated blades.

Can't really say if they are forged steel or not, they are hardened stainless; however one of the blades is VERY finely serrated and the other is smooth so sharpening the one blade is an option but don't recommend sharpening the serrated blade. Since the two parts separate, sharpening the one blade is easy.

The curved ones are. The straight ones are not, nor do they need to be. We've been quite satisfied with these tracks.

No it's a solid blade. The one I received also had a straight blade as opposed to the curved one in the photo. I didn't really care though.

They are called "pinking shears". You may find what you have described if you search that. The scissors I bought were regular straight edge shears, but I own a pair of Weis and a pair of Singer pinking shears in two different lengths. Good luck with your search.

Yes they are straight. The power of this little item is wonderful for thick nails or week hands too.

The very tips of the two halves are a tiny bit rounded, rather than coming to a sharp point. Chances are yours are just the way they're supposed to be, but if you are in doubt, see if there are any sharp or abrupt edges (like something had been broken off), if there aren't then your scissors are just the way they should be.I will recommend that you wash these by hand rather than in a dishwasher though. I think the extreme heat of the drying cycle tends to make the rubber handles a bit brittle as time goes on. Other than that, these are a great addition to any kitchen.I hope that helps you.

They are not pointed, it's kind of rounded at the tips. I have been very satisfied with them. Use them for cutting herbs out of the growing containers, parchment, opening bags and cutting the backs out of chickens when I smoke them. I don't see a need for a sharp point for the kind of cutting I do.

The blades are straight but with a slight curve in them like a spoon. There are adjustment holes so you can have the blades in a different position from the other. I love this paddle, it's the only one I use.

High carbon steel has better edge characteristics and can be made harder than stainless. In scissors, this is particularly important. We have been letting our scissors drip dry and have noted no corrosion.

Yes the scissors are a bit curved and they are around the size of the small thread cutting scissors that people who sew have.

They have a tapered grind edge, with a slight angle at the tip of the knife, I have these and have had no problems sharpening them, I love all my Chicago Cutlery. You cant go wrong for the money.

they formerly were american made... A GOOD PRODUCT,,, i have one of the imports,, i am reserving judgement on them... they must have to meet the schrade standards,, but with the stainless steel blades,, i am not sure... the blades are not as stiff an formerly a definite minus.. a thicker blade could be used better for heavy cutting.and i do prefer the highcarbon steel for taking an edge

They are meant to be used in a straight line. They are very stiff, so it would take a great deal of effort to curve them...

they are stamped stainless on the back and are a very good quality spoon. solid and sturdy.

The blades themselves are straight. The cutting end has curved outer blades to give it a nose shape presumeably so it get into tight spaces but the blades themselves are straight. Hope that helps
