Mark II – Features
Feather light
Made with highest-grade 40% carbon-reinforced polyamide, the Mark II is exceptionally lightweight, reducing hand fatigue during long cutting sessions.
Four-Bar Linkage System
Invented by Slobodan Tepic, this unique mechanism ensures each finger moves equally, boosting grip efficiency and delivering up to 50% more cutting power compared to traditional scissors.
Consistent Cutting Force
Unlike traditional scissors, where cutting power drops near the tip, Swissors® maintains a consistent cutting force from base to tip. The four-bar linkage and flat lower blade enable smooth, precise cuts without lifting fabric or tiring your hand.
Precision Blades
Swissors® blade inserts are made from hardened stainless steel with titanium nitride-coated edges, extending their lifespan by a factor of ten. The blades are replaceable, combining professional-grade durability with long-term sustainability.
Ergonomic Design
Engineered for comfort and control, the handle is sculpted to fit the natural contours of the right hand, reducing fatigue during long cutting sessions. Its balanced design provides exceptional control and stability for professional use.
Swiss-Made Quality
Designed and manufactured in Switzerland, ensuring unmatched quality, durability, and engineering excellence.

Engineered for Performance
Feather-Light Yet Incredibly Strong
Highest-grade 40% carbon-reinforced polyamide. Metal-like strength. Feather-light comfort.
Material Innovation
Trusted in aerospace and high-performance tools, this material is engineered for maximum rigidity and precision — giving you unmatched control with every cut.
Four-Bar Linkage System
The Swissors® Mark II builds on a principle first developed in 1987 by mechanical engineer Slobodan Tepic: the four-bar linkage system. Originally designed for surgical tools, the mechanism allows all fingers to move in unison, distributing force more evenly across the hand.
Now adapted for precision cutting, it delivers up to 50% more cutting force, offering smoother motion, greater control, and consistent performance from base to tip.

Flat to the Table. Smooth to the End.
Unlike traditional scissors, which tilt as you cut, the Mark II remains flat — in contact with your table, aligned with your hand, and perfectly in control.
Thanks to its flat lower blade and precision linkage, it glides from start to finish with clean, accurate cuts — without lifting your fabric or breaking your rhythm.
Precision Blades
Titanium-coated. Replaceable. Uncompromising.
Choose between ultra-sharp regular blades or fabric-gripping serrated blades, engineered for durability and perfect cuts every time.
Titanium Nitride coating – A hard, wear-resistant Titanium Nitride coating (TiN) that keeps the blade edge sharper up to 10× longer, extending overall blade life.
Replaceable Blade Inserts – Swap out blades easily to keep cutting performance like new.
Two Blade Options – Choose between smooth or serrated cutting edges based on your material and preference.
Hardened Stainless Steel – Built to last with exceptional resistance to wear and corrosion.

Recommended Add-On
The Swissors® Blade Brush is crafted for precision scissors like the Mark II — helping tailors maintain flawless performance throughout the day. Fine threads, lint, and fibres can accumulate along the cutting edge, dulling sharpness and compromising clean cuts.
- Gently removes debris without scratching or damaging the blade
- Made from unprocessed wool, naturally rich in lanolin — a soft, protective oil that conditions and protects your blade with every brush.
Designed for professional tailoring environments where clean, consistent cuts are essential.
Pairs perfectly with Swissors® Mark II.
