Offers superb stability: the scissor is fixed to the base which has non-slip pads. Operated by depressing the large handle; spring will automatically reopen the scissor after completion.
NEW: When the time comes to replace the scissors, for convenience and cost effectiveness, keep the existing base and just buy this new replacement scissor part. Simple unscrew the old scissor and use the two screws to fix the new part securely in place on the base.
