Scissors for small cuts???

[MinnBobber]

HI,
I'm experimenting with using scissors for cutting off extremely small nuggets to vape. Like, 3 of these small grains set together would equal a Q-tip cotton end. They are very small chunks to start vaping at lower temps.
For higher temps, I would then stir/break them up.

What scissor would you recommend? I'm looking for nice sized finger holes but short/ petite/ thin/sharp blades as the cuts will be small/delicate. I hold a small nug in my hand and trim off these small pieces over a sheet of paper.

Would a "cannabis trim" scissors be like this? I'm thinking they are made for bigger cuts, cutting hundreds of leaves out of buds. Or are their blades thin and precise?

Or any other hobbies/crafts that would have such a scissors?
Thanks

Honestly something like this sounds perfect:

Curved nail scissors

I use Fiskars.
My old trim scissors. You can get at HomeDepot.

I use those same fiskars for trimming, its just that that costs around $12? I think and a little pair of scissors can be got at wal-mart for maybe $3 or $4. Both are great though!

Thanks,
the curved nail scissors, I had tried and didn't like.

I think I'd like big padded ergo handles (traditional scissors shape) which a nice firm/supported hold and small sized thin precise blades.
The fiskars design makes me think of those cheap garden big trimmers that are very coarse/imprecise.
Are the fiskars blades small and precisely matched to allow small and precise cuts??

Thanks
Do they make a small and precise version BUT with traditional scissors style handles??

Ever since I had my grinder taken by campus PD years ago I've been using scissors. Grinders seem to trap some of the oil from the bud when they break trichrome heads. Scissors do this as well, but since they're a blade it's easy to scrape up what gets stuck. For me, grinders are too convenient, and I end up vaping more than I intended.

Here's a better size perspective.

Thanks. That is the right size.

I thought I found a good match at Fiskars until I saw this pic. I thought it was 1/3 that size. Small and ergonomic finger holes--no need for entire hand to fit into handles...

Here is some miltex 5 115 nice finger whole size.

Camouflaged as an Xmas ornament?

Might i suggest thrum scissors. Excellent option they are spring loaded and your fingers dont get tired. Fasttech at 1.00 a piece free shipping. Best bar none

I use either two sets of extra fine point tweezers or a combo of @Melting Pot 's scissors and the tweezers to hold the nug.

Hallelujah to not grinding up those precious Glandular Heads.

I urge each and everyone of you to try a load with no grind, you can grind after you've taken the first 2 - 3 draws.

The flavor is incredible.

I've been experimenting with these tiny mini-nugs and stir later when changing to higher temps. Flavor is great.
The only issue is when I stir the tiny nugs/ squish them against the side, it creates a lot of cannabis dust as they are then so dry. That dust can then be sucked up into the mouthpiece or hydratube.

I've been inserting a thin thin pancake of hemp fiber to contain the dust

Fiskars makes a version of those small sheers with a non-stick coating on the blades. I’ve read that is good

Theses look interesting

Amazon.com

Also, thoughts on extra fine cuticle scissors?

I tried small scissors but found that medical grade tweezers disturbed the flowers much less than cutting with a scissors.
Pinch a small edge and twist , abs it comes off intact .
Cutting rips up the bud/ glands .

You may want to compare .
