Kai scissors

[leibetty]

I can't seem to find them. My rubber cutting scissors from SU are getting dull at the tip and they are marked as Kai.
I can't seem to find the short blade ones like I have.
I thought Tonic/Tim Holtz had some but the ones I and finding seem more like detail scissors with larger finger holes.
What are you using for cutting rubber?

I think these are the ones you're looking for. I still have mine from SU, and I use them to cut not only rubber stamps, but foam tape and other sticky things. They clean up like a dream, and I rarely have to clean them at all.

Yep! Those are them

I have several sizes of Tim/Tonic scissors. They work well with my crafting needs including rubber cutting.

Here's some on Amazon:.

I think I've gotten mine sharpened, I have a knife sharpener that has a scissor part. and watched a few more sharpening videos
but I AM taking note of the KAI item#

Happy to help!

I use a hot knife - it works well if scissors aren't your thing for trimming rubber and foam.

Does the hot knife give off an odor when you're cutting the foam? I'm super sensitive to smells.

I also have a hot knife, it does great on the foam but I like the scissors better on rubber

yes Jessica, it does smell. burning/melting foam and a little bit of rubber too
it's not super bad IMO but if you're super sensitive, probably would be bothersome to you
