Experience precision and power with the 8″ PTFE Coated Workmaster “Short Cut” Shears, handcrafted in Sheffield, England by Whiteley.
Built for strength and accuracy, these shears feature short blades and extended handles, providing superior leverage for tackling tough materials. Ideal for upholstery, leatherwork, and industrial applications, they glide through fabric, rubber, plastic, and even thin sheet metal with ease.
The serrated rear blade grips materials securely, delivering controlled, precise cuts, especially when trimming excess fabric after tacking or working in tight spaces. Trusted by professionals like AMUSF President Atelier Ray Clarke, BBC’s Simion Hawtin-Smith, and Channel 4’s Ollie Clueit, these shears are a must-have for workshops and DIY enthusiasts alike.
The PTFE-coated blades reduce friction, preventing materials and adhesives from sticking, while the high-durability carbon steel construction ensures long-lasting performance. A true workhorse built for years of reliable, high-performance cutting.
