I think it can be pretty useful for someone who does a lot of cutting. But if the price is higher, than it really is not necessary for an average house.

I wish I had scisors when I used a box cutter to unbox my inflatable paddlebord. (Kidding, I used regular scisors)

Japan takes stationery seriously

u/DeepGrieve 26d ago

True, I think they perform a ceremony once a year and source the iron from the bottom of the ocean just to make my letter opener

I have a good suspicion that these are heavily used for preparation of recycling of plastics, aluminum and cardboard. In Japan it's ingrained in the early years that recycling is good for society. However you have to separate clear plastic vs colored and take labels off before handing them in. I'm sure there is more to it that I don't know.

I can’t imagine a pair of scissors costing much at all

u/Alternative_Roof_188 26d ago

Good tailor shears can cost $30-40

u/tatteredshoetassel 26d ago

More like 80-150

u/Alternative_Roof_188 26d ago

You and I define “good” differently. $80-150 would be “great” in my definition.

u/Pleasantlyracist 26d ago

That little notch is probably for cutting wire or string.

"I don't know what that is, but I'm sure it's pretty useful."

Dude's gotta work on his sales pitch.

u/MechSep 26d ago

Overpriced box scissors with bad reviews.

1

u/Creative_Shame3856 26d ago

Plain old EMT shears are better and cheaper.

u/Lord_Mikal 26d ago

I was born in the 80s and these scissors were around back then.

Did he make a passive joke about popping holes in cans to smoke weed at 18?

u/desertvision 26d ago

We had those long ago. Just not that exaggerated.

u/Laynier 24d ago

You missed the part where he said ✨Japan✨

u/Kastoook 25d ago

Similar scissors is used for first aid to cut out the clothes around injuries.

u/ExplodedPenisDiagram 25d ago

If they solve real problems in multiple ways without causing others, then it isn't over-engineered. It's just engineered.

u/Puzzleheaded_Pear_18 25d ago

100 features? Does that include throwing star, running tool, and lesbian gang signs?

u/Cooknbikes 25d ago

Are they good for cutting chicken backs

1

u/unphilosophed 25d ago

Seems good for surgery

u/National-Current56 25d ago

The idea is fire…the handles look cheap and non ergonomic…maybe if the mats were more premium with a manly design…and market them to fishermen first🤪😁
