## Overview

Ascend Tools 8 inch Industrial Grade Carbon Steel Shears are expertly crafted with high carbon Japanese steel blades hardened to HRC 60-62 and micro-serrated edges for superior grip and clean cuts. Designed specifically for cutting advanced high-tensile fibers like Kevlar, Dyneema, and Carbon Fiber, these shears combine durability, ergonomic comfort, and portability, making them the go-to tool for professionals in aviation, marine, military, and technical fields.

## Description

These shears are ideal to cut materials made from aramid and para-aramid fibers such as Kevlar, Dyneema, Vectran, Spectra, Technora, Nomex, Innegra, Dacron and other materials made from fiberglass and carbon fiber in rope, ribbon, thread, tape and fabric form. Its blades are made of high carbon alloy steel from Japan and are infused with Molybdenum and Vanadium (HRC 60~62) through a proprietary manufacturing process to achieve a level of hardness (HV1200) to cut high tech material. It can be used to cut materials made from carbon fiber, glass fiber, plastic, canvas, vinyl, leather, suede, leatherette, nylon, silk, cotton, for upholstery, headliner, cloth, string or other knitted forms. The cutting performance is great across the length of the blade. Quick and accurate trimming can be done with sharp edges. They can also be used to make relief cuts during the lay-up process to fit the reinforcement into the mold. Cut hanging fibers along the cutting edge of the fabric cleanly. Cut fiber thread off the fiber optic cable neatly to install connectors. Also used for splicing all type of halyards, sheets, topping lifts, lazyjacks and control lines.

Review: perfect for sails - great prodruct and durability
Review: Incredibly Sharp Scissors - These are very easy to pick up and put down, comfortable in the hand, plus they allow for a thumb and 4 finger grip for more control and strength of cut. We have had a pair of Japanese carbon steel scissors for over 6 years now and they are still as sharp as new. Having a thumb and 2 finger holes made it challenging to put down and pick up those scissors. The ergonomics of these Ascend scissors work so much better for persistent handling it's like night and day. Just be advised: The blades on these scissors are very sharp!
