Wilkinson by Whiteley 8" Pinking Shears, Made in England
Carbon steel pinking shears with saw-tooth blades, made by beloved UK scissor manufacturer W. Whiteley & Sons. They're great for cutting light to medium weight fabrics in a zig-zag pattern, which helps to prevent fraying. Their sidebent design was first patented by Thomas Wilkinson in 1800, and it allows the shears to rest flat against the tabletop, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted cuts.
