Scissors are an early game weapon and tailoring tool.
Usage
Tailoring
- Main article: Tailoring
Scissors are required to use the "rip clothing" command on denim and leather to gain their scraps.
Weapon
Scissors can be used as an emergency weapon. They have low durability and a guaranteed chance of degrading on each hit, leaving a maximum of 10 strikes with them before breaking.
The scissors are a single attack weapon, meaning it can only strike a single zombie at a time.
Crafting
Build 41
