Harvesting scissors with serrated edge and holster
Small sharp scissors with one serrated blade designed for harvesting plant material cleanly. The holster attaches to your belt so they're immediately accessible, and the serrated edge grips stems instead of pushing them away.

- 2Serrations on only one blade for clean cuts
- 3Holster with secure closure that won't drop scissors when bending
- 4Blade length 2–3 inches for precision without bulk
- 5Spring-action that doesn't require constant grip pressure
