Bladed weapons come in all different shapes and forms, from swords to spears. Then there are scissors. Believe it or not, these everyday household tools are considered to be dangerous by the TSA. Typically, characters who use these as their weapon of choice are gardeners/groundskeepers (using shears) or tailors (using scissors). However, those associated with death may also use them; Atropos was known for using scissors to cut the threads of life. Morticians and taxidermists also use scissors when they perform autopsies or prepare bodies for their final, possibly mounted, resting place. Subtrope of Improbable Weapon User and Improvised Weapon. See also Power Pincers. Can overlap with Martial Arts and Crafts. Has absolutely nothing to do with Rock–Paper–Scissors or Scissors Cuts Rock. Scissors that are capable of cutting rock and other hard materials is something completely different. When a Shear Menace is running, it's an example of Runs with Scissors. Examples |

Gertrud, the first witch to appear in Puella Magi Madoka Magica, has a gardening theme. To that end, she uses vines with giant scissors on the ends. Her familiars have smaller scissors, which, when not menacing Muggles, they mostly use to cut roses for her. A magical girl introduced in Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story, Konomi Haruna, also uses a pair of scissors. While it hasn’t yet been confirmed if she and Gertrud are one and the same, there are other eerily similar signs between the two. |

In Warhammer: Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40,000, Horticulous Slimux goes into battle armed with a pair of rusted and filth-covered lopping shears rather than the usual balesword or plaguesword wielded by Daemonic Heralds of Nurgle. These shears are just as efficient at cutting up the enemies of Grandfather Nurgle as any other weapon of the Plague God and fit with Horticulous' role as head gardener of the Garden of Nurgle. | |

The Unofficial Hollow Knight RPG: Scissor blades are one-handed weapons that can be dual-wielded or linked together to form a pair of scissors, a two-handed weapon that functionally allows you to hit the enemy with both blades at once. Notably a single Scissor counts as both a Nail and a Hook for the purposes of weapon arts, while a linked pair of scissors is in the Needle and Tusk categories, meaning that a scissor-wielding character has access to a wide variety of weapon arts. | |

In the end of the first volume of My Happy Marriage, Kaya Saimori menaces her stepsister Miyo with a pair of scissors, making a damaging cut in her new kimono and then threatening to cut her throat next with them if she doesn't renounce her engagement to Kudou. She then brings out a pair of garden shears, although this is just to cut the rope holding her hands up so she can gloat over Miyo collapsed on the floor. | |

In M.F.A., Noelle uses a pair of scissors to threaten Calvin when she has him taped to a chair in the gymnasium. When she is disturbed by a campus cop, she hurriedly stabs him in the neck with them. There is a gush of blood, but because she was rushed, he survives. | |

Rather than using the scissors on their own as a weapon, Cassidy uses them to cut herself in half, activating her Self-Duplication ability. Afterwards, each clone uses half the pair of scissors as a sword. | |

Victorious brings us the girl known as Jade West, who has this as a personal motif. She's constantly seen carrying and using pair of scissors, she decks her locker out with them, and her favorite movie is a paranormal slasher titled The Scissoring (make of that what you will), in which the monster is a girl who comes back from the dead and uses a pair of scissors to hack her two best friends to death. Jade is a downplayed example, though, because while she does threaten people with her scissors, she never uses them in a fight, which is good for maintaining the kid-friendly vibe. | |

Kamen Rider: Kamen Rider Scissors from Kamen Rider Ryuki, has this as his Visor, essentially a weapon that functions as a card reader. Appropriately enough, his Bond Creature is a Giant Enemy Crab. Kamen Rider Gatack from Kamen Rider Kabuto can combine his Gatack Double Calibur swords to turn them into giant pair of scissors for his Rider Cutting Finishing Move. In Kamen Rider Wizard, Gremlin is able to use his two swords to form scissors. This might be in tune with his human form, Sora, as he used to be a hairstylist and still is a Serial Killer who murders with his stylists' scissors. |

In Salt and Sanctuary, two of the Greatswords in the game are classified as Greatscissors, both of which share a unique two-handed strong attack that has you clip with the scissors instead of the thrusting attack regular greatswords have. The Jaws of Death was conceived by an Askarian inventor who joined two recycled greatswords together on a hinge and was subsequently approved for use in the Askarian army after successful field testing. The Northern Cross was Markdor's attempt to outdo their rival nation and create a superior version. They both succeeded and failed in that the weapon is indeed superior to the Jaws of Death, dealing magic damage in addition to physical with S-rank scaling in both Strength and Magic; however, unlike the Jaws of Death, it was impossible to mass-produce due to the rarity of its materials. Both weapons are extreme Game Breakers, primarily because greatswords in general are overpowered already, and the scissor attack is both extremely powerful and can be spammed very quickly, cutting even the toughest bosses to ribbons in no time. | |

Paper Mario: In Paper Mario: Sticker Star, several Things Mario can use in battle are scissors, which cut away Mario's foes. Scissors appears again in Paper Mario: The Origami King, however, he's now much more menacing than before, being a sentient Thing of Kryptonite in a world made of paper working against Mario this time. He can reduce anything he encounters into confetti and can One-Hit Kill Mario during his boss battle. |

A Darker Path: When raiding Kaiser's private weapon collection, Taylor sees his bodice shears — essentially a giant pair of scissors with each blade sharpened like a two-edged dagger — and immediately wants them. They quickly become her signature weapon as "Atropos", the Fate who cuts the threads of mortal lives, and Kaiser himself, when he makes the connection between the robbery and the character, is suitably alarmed. | |

In-universe fiction in Transhuman Space sometimes features a C-Brown gardening robot being reprogrammed to kill its owner with its built-in shears. While this has never actually happened, concern is great enough that later models have a Big Red Button to switch it off, positioned where it could be easily reached if the machine was rushing towards you. | |

The Pokémon Scizor has claws that function like scissors as well as, of course, being named after scissors. Naturally, it learns the move X-Scissor, and it's one of the best moves it can have since it gets same-type attack bonus from Scizor's Bug typing and takes advantage of its massive Attack stat. | |

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Enya carries a pair of scissors on her at all times. Normally, she lets her Stand powers do the work, but she is always ready to bring out those scissors if enemies get too close or if enemies are successfully avoiding her Stand's attacks. For an old lady, she is absurdly quick with them. Unlike most examples of this trope, however, she never opens the blades, instead only stabbing people with the scissors fully closed. | |

Back at the very beginning of Doctor Who, the third story involved the travelers turning on each other (because the ship itself was trying to communicate, only its methods were inhuman and therefore mentally disorienting). One memorable moment, later regretted by the producer for the attention it drew, involved Susan threatening the others with a pair of large and lethal-looking dress scissors before using them to viciously stab a bed. (Susan-with-Scissors is currently the page image for the story recap.) | |

He also carries a larger pair of scissors on his back to use for his Luna Impulse attack. In the anime, he wields the thing as a single blade with two handles for a Diagonal Cut. In the manga, it's a Bifurcated Weapon whose halves he wields alongside his arm blades. According to his reference book entry, a single cut with any of them can shut anything down including body parts. | |

In Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night you meet Todd, a man who has been cursed to turn into one of the murderous Killer Barbers roaming the castle. He explains that he has sentient cursed scissors attached to his hands, the only way to remove them is to come up with 666 unique hairstyles, and that they have to be good: he can't just be lazy and keep snipping until he hits 666 or else the scissors will know he's cheating and murder whoever he's giving a haircut to. Miriam even lampshades how stupidly and conveniently specific the curse is by calling it "the worst curse she's ever heard of". Speaking of, there are also the much less friendly other Killer Barbers roaming the castle as well. | |

Red Riding Hood from the Mary Skelter: Nightmares trilogy uses a massive pair of scissors as her default weapon. She can use it to cut down netting within the Jail, and reflexively stabbed a berserk Little Mermaid with them ten years before the first game's events. | |

Mega Man: Mega Man (Classic): Cut Man, who has a giant scissor blade on his head, has the Rolling Cutter weapon, throwable scissor blades that return like boomerangs. Crush Crawfish (Japanese name: Scissors Shrimper) from Mega Man X3 has pincers used like scissors. Hornet Man's stage in Mega Man 9 has animate gardening shears as enemies. |

Sundowner from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Dual Wields a pair of machetes that can be linked together to form a giant pair of scissors, which you in turn can buy and use them yourself after you kill him. Mission Control even lampshades the relative ineffectiveness of such a weapon, at least when compared to more conventional blades, when reflecting on how Sundowner uses them for the psychological effect they'd have on his opponent, and because he's enough of a cruel bastard that to him "ineffective" just means "slower and more painful for his victims". | |

The Oolacile Scarecrows from Dark Souls have shears as their main weapon. In one area you see them using the shears to trim trees, implying that these guys are less guardsmen than they are gardeners. Their shears work pretty well against intruders all the same. Unfortunately, the shears are unobtainable. | |
