Spring scissors rationale
This is a pair of scissors that design to use easier, comfortable and it is really different than the other scissors. Ergonomics design is to fit human hand shape, allowed the user use much confortable for longer time. for all tools a “C” shape handle back is the best shape to fit the curve of the hand also I design to use rubber, rubber is good to be the handle, it is not too soft and not too hard, it can change a little bit of the shape to fit every user, rubber have a non slip surface, people can easy hold and will not slip.
This scissors got a spring, it different than the other spring, it is not a roll shape spring, it is a “V” shape spring, stronger than the roll shape spring but will not need to use much strength to us it, every time when the user cut something it will auto open again, it is good to let people cut fast and good for old people to use it,
The spring idea is from the pliers, what I think is when cutting things, normally need to cut a lot, so the scissors will auto open is better, however normal pliers spring don’t have enough strength, when cutting something too hard, maybe stuck. so I need to think a kind of new spring, that’s why I use two elasticity metal to make a spring.
Second why not using the old style scissors handle, the design of my scissor can have more space to hold, so it can let the user exert more strength to cut things that are hard like cardboard or plastic, it can also put one side of the handle on the table and us hole hand the push another side of the handle to cut something that is really hard to cut.

  1. The design is sleek and simple. I feel it could be appealing to all ages. The spring incorporated in the design in a great way to make it easier to use whilst still interact with the user. Good choice of colour.

  2. Your design is unique and unlike anything else you would find which makes it exciting. I think your choice of colour is fit for the design and a great indicator of where one would hold the scissors. The only thing I could fault is maybe make the handles circular where users put their hands in so they are less likely to fall out of peoples' hands. Other than that great job :)

  3. Your design is VERY simple which can be advantage. Also colour of the handle matches very well with your product. However, by adding some stuffs on the blade area or change the shape of the blade might make it look better:D

  4. The shape of the handle is quite different from normal scissors we can see in the market. It is very sample and unique. One thing need to be worried is will we use this scissors comfortably? And it is may not good to place it at anywhere with the blades split. It could be a problem for safety.

  5. I like your idea of that V shaped spring which can connect handles very well. The shining blue colour is cool as well.
    improvement: the tips of the blades are round. They become sharp maybe better.

  6. The design is sleek and simple. I feel it could be appealing to all ages. The spring incorporated in the design in a great way to make it easier to use whilst still interacting with the user. Good choice of colour. Would like to see maybe a safety guard around the spring and the handle to wrap fully around the metal part of the handle.
