Modern scissors have greatly improved in shape, material, craftsmanship, quality, variety, and function compared with ancient scissors. However, judging from the existing relics, the scissors used by people in the Song Dynasty are roughly close to the modern ones. Luoyang Ancient Tomb Museum also has a pair of scissors unearthed from a tomb in the fifth year of Xining in the Northern Song Dynasty (1072 AD), and its appearance is very similar to modern scissors. This shows that the current model of scissors in China has been used for at least 1,000 years.
There are many types of scissors, and the main material is alloy steel. It is generally composed of two parts-the active blade controlled by the thumb and the static blade controlled by the ring finger, and the two parts are fixed with a screw.
