A pivoted tool (10) with foldable handles, such as a pair of scissors, includes a pair of opposed elongated members (12,14), each member comprising a jaw (24) at a front end portion thereof, a handle (34) at a rear end portion thereof, and a midportion (28) where the members cross over each other. A pivot (16) unites the midportions (28) for scissor-like movement of the handles and jaws about the pivot. According to the invention, each member includes a metal plate having a forwardly extending blade (18,38) which comprises one of the jaws and a rearwardly extending tang (26). The foldable handles and pivot are made of a moldable material molded onto the metal plate, such that the handles are molded onto the tang of the metal plate and the pivot extends through a central hole in the metal plate. The moldable material is most preferably a plastic, but other moldable substances could be employed. <IMAGE> |
