                                 Leather project #7 Summary on scissor sheath 


This is to summarize on type of pivoted scissor, design, functionality and shape of scissor sheath.
These are some common scissor I have access or I own some of them. Of course there is a wide range of scissor design to fit the wide ranges base on your needs and requirement.

 Overall view of type , shape, size and design of scissor so far I had encountered.

There so many type and functionality scissor which make it a real challenge to design a sheath for them.

However it pose a real challenge each scissor sheath I design was to make it easy to use and ease of removal and insertion.

Close up view of scissors for a typical tailor (fabric shear) use .
 Sharing certain type and design of scissor sheath.

From left side is basic  scissor sheath uses thick paper base material wrap round with discarded leather strip.

Second from left is another scissor sheath, it consist of two leather shape according to scissor profile. It is wrap with discarded leather strip (after skiver a leather the discarded material)

From Right side is simple scissor sheath encase the the left side basic scissor sheath casing. Add button strap to minimize movement when a scissor is inserted.

I try to design a scissor sheath that match the user needs and ease to store and retrieve it.


This is a very earlier design for this type of scissor. it big and type of holder it simple.
The inside is another layer (material could be scrap leather or paper base sheet) to minimize leather surface wear and tear.
