Abstract
A retrofit handle attachment for scissors. The attachment includes a contoured attachment body adapted for being secured to a handle portion of the scissors and held in a palm of a user. The attachment body defines an enlarged surface area for being gripped by the user. Fasteners are provided for securing the attachment body to the handle portion of the scissors, whereby the handle attachment increases the comfort of the scissors in the palm of the user to reduce fatigue and the incidence of repetitive motion injury.
