These heavy duty shears efficiently cut materials made from aramid and para-aramid fibers, such as Kevlar®, Dyneema®, Vectran®, Spectra®, Technora®, Nomex®, Innegra®, Tedlar®, Dacron® and other materials made from fiberglass and carbon fiber which ordinary scissors cannot cut.  These shears provide excellent cutting performance on dry materials in the form of fabric, tape, and ribbon.  Its blades are made of high carbon alloy steel from Japan and are infused with Molybdenum and Vanadium through a proprietary manufacturing process to harden (HRC 60-62, HCV1200) the cutting blades needed for high-tech materials.  The ergonomically designed large grip-ring delivers more power with reduced fatigue and wrist strain.  The grips are designed to fit in the power portion of the hand and produces cleaner cut with less effort.  One blade is micro-serrated to avoid slippage and the other can be sharpened to extend life.  The tang on the blades is long to provide cutting efficiency.


To cut composite-grade materials is a very difficult task.  These 10" shears are meant for clean long cuts into sailcloth, rope, canvas, leather, plastic, silk, cotton, nylon and other knitted fabrics.  The blade angle and grinding is what sets them apart from competitors.  The handles are right hand friendly and comfortable.  It is an excellent shear for marine, clothing, electrical, cabling, upholstery, safety, and construction industries.

Sail makers and riggers around in the United States, Canada and Europe use these shears in their daily projects to cut fabric, ropes, sleeves and tapes.
Fabricators who use fiberglass and carbon fiber materials have replaced their current shears in favor of these heavy duty shears.  Fabric using variety of composite materials prefer these shears over competition as we have experienced while acquiring new customers.

This family of shears consists of 9" (ATi-807), 10" (ATi-808) and 11" (ATi-809) shears; in sizes suitable to your application.

Special Features:

  •  Micro-serrated blade for gripping materials during cut 

  • Sharp blade to shear fabric easily

  • Non-serrated blade can be sharpened to extend life

  • Extended tang for durability and efficient force transfer

  • Adjustable pivot point to modify blades tension

  • Thermo-plastic elastomer handles for a comfortable non-slip grip

  • Right hand friendly (left hand shears in concept stages)

Versatile and effective.
I use these shears for cutting Innegra in my survival gear and fiberglass in my car’s insulation. Solid performance, just a bit on the pricey side.

Impressive cutting power for various materials.
They work wonders on carbon fiber and Dyneema. The handles could use more padding for extended use, but they get the job done.

Highly effective shears for multiple tasks.
I’ve used them for splicing Vectran ropes and cutting Nomex fabrics. Only minor complaint is the weight, but the cutting efficiency makes up for it.

Stays sharp after many cuts (Kevlar)
Cut Kevlar 500 times easily. The shears still leaves a clean edge after so many cuts. The handle is large enough and comfortable.
