Length can add leverage, which can be multiplied when using your whole hand for power. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B001M0E5YO\/cooltools-20\">These cutters<\/a> ($19) give you both, and comfortably too. Made from stainless steel, they&#8217;re long-handled, allow application of your whole hand&#8217;s power, and so these things chop right through anything you thought your scissors might be able to handle &#8212; but couldn&#8217;t. The offset blades give your hand clearance for safety, too. <\/p>\n<p>Not that these are &#8220;for&#8221; clamshell packaging exactly, but the offset and leverage has made any such packaging I&#8217;ve run into a complete non-issue. More efficient than scissors, and a lot safer than any knife. They&#8217;ve got a flip-into-place spring to open the handles when in use, and then the spring folds back out of the way so it can go back into a drawer, pocket or tool bag. A handle lock is unneeded. There&#8217;s no reason to think the scissors you&#8217;ve been using should be replaced, and these add a lot to your cutting capacities. They&#8217;re a terrific addition. A fool-proof backup.<\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cuts corrugated cardboard, vinyl sheet, and resin board <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33415"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33415"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33415\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":33418,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33415\/revisions\/33418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
