Foldable Scissors (KUM / RayMay) ****

If you put your scissors in a bag they might damage it. The sharp end can intrude the fabric of your companion. German firm KUM introduced a few years ago a simple pair of scissors in the form of a pen. The construction was engineered by Akio Fujii from RayMay. On the top part there is a cap to prevent injury. First you remove the cap. If you then open the rest two eyelets made from flexible plastic material pop out (by sliding on each side a fastener from the joint downwards). A smart solution to an every day problem. Would be nice if there came a higher quality version. The idea is nice! The scissors are called the PenCut. A simple product for any pupil that needs scissors at school. Because of its symmetry and the two way sharpening of the blades these scissors can be adjusted for both right and left hand users. Fascinating!
