Abstract
A pair of scissors, in particular haircutting scissors, has a hinged joint consisting of a hinge screw ( ) and a screw nut ( ). The hinge screw ( ) is essentially non-rotatably connected to one scissors half ( ) and the screw nut ( ) engages in a bore ( ) in this scissors half ( ). Situated in said bore ( ) is a first flexible body ( ) which, under contact pressure, sits against the end of the screw nut ( ) facing the head ( ) of the hinge screw ( ) and against the shaft ( ) of the hinge screw ( ). To ensure that even a short screw nut will be securely held and can be precisely adjusted, the invention provides that the screw nut ( ) has on its outer circumference a groove ( ) in which is situated a second flexible body ( ) which, under contact pressure, sits against the screw nut ( ) and the bore ( ) in the scissors half ( ).
