Scissors with flexible handle segment

摘要

A scissors has pivotally joined metal cutting elements, each having a handle portion including a yoke insert molded in hard plastic inner portions of handle loops. In one of the loops the hard plastic material defines only a part of the loop, terminating in spaced ends which are fixed to a flexible and resilient portion which completes the loop. The other loop has projecting forwardly therefrom a hard plastic finger rest which extends along the handle portion and defines a channel receiving the handle portion of the one loop. Both loops have hard plastic buttons projecting therefrom which abut when the scissors are closed. The flexible and resilient portion of the one loop is formed of a soft, frictional material which also covers outer surfaces of the hard plastic portions of both loops and the finger rest.
