Measure Twice, Cut Once: These Playfully Designed Scissors Nestle Three Functions into Geometric Shapes
All images courtesy of Zencix
Part tool and part quirky design object, a trio of scissors by the Japanese manufacturer Zencix package multiple uses into one unusually efficient and playful form. Three geometric models comprise the company’s collection known as Trisqucle, a mishmash of triangle, square, and circle. In addition to their typical cutting capabilities, the steel scissors also have a ruled edge and spherical drawing guides for three-in-one functionality.
Vintage editions dating back to the 80s are floating around online, and you can pick up the modern version from Present&Correct. (via Core77)
