I have been sorting through my mom's sewing stuff, trying to organize the mess that is called my sewing room.
I am across these scissors - Which I have no idea what they are suppose to be used for- they are around 4 1/2" long - the blade is 1 1/2" long - but only 1" is sharp and cuts. There is a 1/2" cut out on both blades. The screw when twisted pulls out a brass gear thingamagig - which prevents the scissors from fully closing -
They say Von Cleff & Co. on 1 side and PAT. 7393 Germany on the other side.
Does anyone know what they are used for.
