Gingher^® Featherweight Thread Clippers feature stainless steel, knife-edge blades with sharp pointed ends perfect for pulling and snipping threads in tight spots. These thread nippers have a glass-filled nylon handle for added strength and come with a protective cap for safe storage in your purse, pocket or sewing basket. The cap also has a loop for a cord (not included) so clippers can be hung in a convenient spot or around the neck for instant access.
