Excellent sharpness! These metal thread snips from Nasu brand feature blades of different shapes. - Type: Thread snips - Material: Metal - Design: Two blades of different shapes - Accessories: Comes in a box The top side with the Nasu mark appears flat, possibly due to a chip or the manufacturing process. The opposite side is pointed. Please check the photos for any blemishes. I tried cutting with them, and the sharpness is very good. As the description says "reputed scissors," I believe they are a very good product. The box is torn and damaged. Thank you for looking.
