Dovo Hardanger Scissors

I have had Dovo Hardanger scissors recommended to me over the years again and again. So I decided to see what the fuss was all about.

Ooh yes, they are *lovely*.

Detail of Dovo Hardanger scissors blades

They are fine, fine, fine. The points are so pointy. The blades are so sharp. They feel lovely in my hands and they cut so beautifully.

When working with Hardanger, particularly on high counts of fabric, you need fine, narrow blades to get into between the fabric threads. The Dovo Hardanger scissors are perfect for this. And so they should be, because they were designed specifically with Hardanger in mind.

However, they are suitable to use for any sort of cutwork embroidery and even lace making. They will work a treat for your Portuguese Whitework, your reticella, your drawn thread work, your Richelieu, your Schwalm, your merezhka, or any other sort of cutwork embroidery.

They are made from hot-forged stainless steel, by Dovo, in Solingen, Germany, which was founded in 1906. They’ve been making good scissors for a very long time.

You can now purchase Dovo Hardanger Scissors from Vetty Creations. You may remember that about 4 years ago I wrote a blog post on what I look for in a pair of embroidery scissors. I have now updated that post to include these scissors, which have become my top recommendation.
