Patented Set-Easy Pivot. Royal Blue Handles. One blade is ground to a knife-edge for faster, cleaner, easier cutting of today’s synthetic fabrics.” They are 12 inches long, with a 6 1/8 inch length of cut, and weigh about 1 1/4 pounds.
See any Royal Blue Paint left on them?

barely have black paint - they do cut even thought they were rusted
