About the Item

Italian-made hot-dropped forged steel plated in Nickel and Brass are used to make the scissors and letter opener. The green leather case is marked Solingen Germany. "Often called “The City of Blades”, Solingen, in North-Rhine Westphalia, has been a center for the manufacturing of scissors since medieval times. At the end of the 18th century it’s estimated that there were over 300 scissorsmiths in Solingen." This set is a perfect Mother, Father's Day, or Housewarming gift and a compliment to any office or library. The scissors cut with ease and the leather case is good quality. The letter opener is signed Italy.
