FACTORY SECOND - These Tailoring Shears have minor cosmetic imperfections with the gold plating on handles. Gold has not adhered to all areas of the handles- please see photos for examples.
Imperfections do not affect the function of the Tailoring Shears.

SOHMO Tailoring Shears – 10" in Gold (Factory Seconds)
The same shears. A few cosmetic slip-ups. A much smaller price.
These are genuine SOHMO Large Tailoring Shears, handmade in Italy from nickel-plated carbon steel with 24k gold-plated handles, exactly like our full-price 10" shears. On this batch, the gold plating hasn't adhered quite evenly to the handles, the engraving sits slightly skewed, or there's a light cosmetic patina visible on the blades. None of it affects how they cut.
The dual-blade, knife-edge design is unchanged: at 10" with a 130mm blade, these are still the substantial, serious shears built for heavy wool coating, upholstery, multiple layers of denim, and any fabric cutting job that needs real reach and real muscle behind it, seconds and all.
Sold naked, no gift box, no foam insert, no microfibre cloth, just the shears themselves, which is how we're able to offer them at this price. Perfect if you want a genuine Italian-made SOHMO 10" shear for serious everyday cutting and couldn't care less whether the handles are cosmetically perfect.
This is a once-off batch. Once they're gone, they're gone, and we won't be restocking factory seconds on a schedule, so grab a pair while they're here.
