ARS Professional Tailoring Shears - 10.5cm Blade - High-Carbon Steel Scissors for Fabric & Tailoring
Achieving a perfectly straight, snag-free cut in heavy or delicate fabrics requires a tool with surgical sharpness and perfect tension. The ARS Professional Tailoring Shears are engineered for high-volume fabric work, featuring specialized Japanese steel that allows the blades to glide through material with minimal resistance. Built to withstand the rigors of professional tailoring, these shears ensure every cut is precise, protecting your fabric from fraying and reducing the physical effort required for large-scale pattern cutting.
Best For The professional tailor, upholsterer, or serious hobbyist requiring heavy-duty, razor-sharp shears that maintain a surgical edge and offer adjustable tension for cutting various fabric weights.
Key Features
-
Marquench Hardened High-Carbon Steel: The blades undergo a specialized Japanese Marquench hardening process, providing exceptional toughness and edge retention that allows the shears to stay razor-sharp significantly longer than standard carbon steel.
-
Innovative Tension Adjustment Dial: Features a precision dial that allows you to instantly customize the blade tension to suit the specific thickness of your material, ensuring optimal cutting efficiency and reducing hand fatigue during long shifts.
-
Hard Chrome Plated Finish: The blade surface is treated with hard chrome plating to provide superior rust resistance and a low-friction glide, ensuring the shears remain effortless to clean and move smoothly through sticky or synthetic fibers.
-
Razor-Sharp Precision Edges: Each blade is ground to a surgical finish to eliminate fabric snagging and fraying, providing the clean, professional lines necessary for high-end tailoring and intricate pattern work.
-
Balanced Heavy-Duty Handling: At 240g, these shears provide the necessary weight and stability for cutting through heavy denim, upholstery, and multiple layers of wool while remaining perfectly balanced for detailed work.

Oversized Item Delivery Options
Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
- Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
- Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
- Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions
Business Delivery:
- Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
- If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).
How lead times work:
- Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
- Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
- Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
- Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
- Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.
Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
