Shears ... One side (or both) has a larger handle to accommodate a couple of fingers (thumb in the top and fingers in the bottom). The handles are often attached with an adjustable screw for precision cutting (especially dressmaker's shears). Dressmaker's shears are generally longer and their bent shape facilitates easier cutting of fabrics, while utility shears with both large handles have a heavier construction and a wider range of cutting applications. 4, record 3, English, - dressmaker%27s%20shears
