Quick take

Fine-tip precision scissors designed for cutting feathers, deer hair, wire, tinsel and monofilament in fly tying.

The Kershaw Skeeter 3 is a compact pair of fly-tying scissors, 4.25 inches long and about 0.7 oz. Its 1.25 inch satin-finish steel blades end in an extra-fine point for trimming deer hair, feathers, wire and tinsel. Micro serrations on one blade grip monofilament, and the overmolded finger loops make detail work easier at the vise.
