Button Scissors Buttons are replaceable; the fabric around them often is not. These compact scissors have very fine, curved points that reach beneath a sewn button and cut its thread with less risk to the surrounding cloth. At just 3.5 inches long, they fit easily into a sewing box, alterations kit, or travel repair kit. The included leather case protects the sharp points between jobs.
