Dr. Slick 3.5-Inch Arrow MicroTip Scissors
A compact gold-loop pair with straight, serrated MicroTip blades for fine work close to the hook.
Description
If you tie lightly dressed flies, look at how much room you have to trim one stray fiber without catching the wraps beside it. The compact Arrow frame and narrow tips suit that kind of close approach. Hold the fly where you can see the fiber you want to cut, then bring the tips in alongside it.

Fit and buying advice
The SA35GMT is the MicroTip model. If you need to cut wire, check for a separately specified cutter. If your usual job is preparing thick hair, compare a pair with heavier or longer blades.
Questions about this tool
Can I cut wire with this exact model?
Use a tool that the maker expressly rates for wire. The MicroTip chart describes the fine serrated blades for delicate work.
When is the 3.5-inch Arrow helpful?
Choose it when you want a small frame for trims in the space around the hook and vise jaws.
What is the difference from the Arrow Razor?
The Razor has a tension adjustment and a longer 3.75-inch frame. The Arrow MicroTip prioritizes fine-tip access.
