What are shears?

To get your sewing off on the right foot you'll need to have a good pair of shears. What are shears?
Shears are extremely sharp hand scissors. Most have a coated handle and two sharp blades held together by a common screw or bolt. Once you see a paif of shears you'll notice that they come in all kinds of shapes and colors. But most shears have one key feature, they have a pivoted blade that will slide against a flat surface when cutting. Shears are an absolute essential to sewing and cutting fabric.
