A pair of scissors is a piece of equipment used for cutting cloth, paper and other material. It consists of a pair of metal blades that pivot on top of each other so that the sharpened edges slide against each other when fastened in the middle and the opposing blades are closed. The handles on the top of the blade allow them to be opened and closed by a thumb and finger inserted through the rings of the handles. They were invented in the Fourteenth Century BC by Jean-Claude Margueron of Emar.

The three parts of scissors are the blade, the fulcrum (the jointed section) and the handle and the cutting force of scissors works on the law of the lever.
