Usage

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 with no Maintenance skill before breaking. Scissors can still, however, perform Jaw Stabs.

The scissors are a One-Handed weapon and is in the Short Blade Category.

Decorative

Scissors can also be used to modify a character's hair or beard.
