User questions & answers

Question:	I love these!!! all of the writing and info is in a different language. would you please provide information on warranty and sharpening? thank you
Answer:	I have not need yet to sharp mine or claim for warranty, but when I was getting info about product, they said in KAI web site you deal with warranty sitiations and I think they deal with the sharpenning too and I remember they mentioning do not let any body else do it.
Question:	Is the Kai 7205 pro shears for left hand or right handers
Answer:	Hi, scissors are for the right hand but I use both hands and is very easy to use it with your left hand. Scissors are very good, crisp, comfortable.
Question:	Does this pair of shears come with a blade cover
Answer:	Yes, mine came with a red plastic blade cover (May 2015).
Question:	Are these suitable for more than just fabric cutting... like general crafting and paper cutting duties
Answer:	I am not sure because fabric cutters never use their shears for paper. THey are the best fabric shears we have ever purchased. However I dont see why they would not work great for other things. They have great movement and preciseness in their cuts.

User questions & answers

Question:	How are these different than the non-professional ones
Answer:	Better quality metal. More carbon in the steel. They stay sharper longer and are more resistant to nicks.
Question:	I accidentally cut into a pin while cutting and have damaged my glorious scissors. Can this be repaired
Answer:	Just p/u a decent Wet Stone here on Amazon. The scissors come apart and it isnt hard to simply sharpen and work out any damage to the blades. Watch a tutorial and practice on a cheap pair first. It will probably be cheaper plus you have a stone you can use on your knives and scissors down the line for many, many years.
Question:	When i received my kai shears, the package was not sealed and i am concerned that they may have been previously used. does the package come sealed
Answer:	Hi,The packaging is opened towards the top in an "envelope" and not sealed. That is the way they come directly from KAI. Please feel free to contact KAI directly (1-800-481-4943) to verify that we are a reputable distributor. I assure you the scissors are brand new. Please feel free to contact us directly as well if you have any more questions (512-364-9845 / [email protected]). Thanks for your order!
Question:	will this ship to australia
Answer:	Hi, yes you should be able to get it sent to Australia. Just buy as normal and it should give you a shipping total.

User questions & answers

Question:	is this tsa approved
Answer:	Not really. It works great on removing decking nails though.
Question:	Will these give split ends
Answer:	It does a good job at sunken nails. But pallets are usually hard wood and this tool is only a little longer than a foot. Making pulling a bit tough. I used it on ceter siding
Question:	My ring finger is size 12. Can these be used by someone with large fingers
Answer:	Yes each side is designed to pry up nails
Question:	Is this one for leftys
Answer:	it has "USA" right under "DEAD ON" on the handle. I'm assuming that means made in USA. All I can tell you is I've had one with me on my framing bags every day for a decade and would feel naked without it.
