What is another word for pinking shears?
Pronunciation: [pˈɪŋkɪŋ ʃˈi͡əz] (IPA) 
Pinking shears are a kind of scissors used to make zigzag cuts in fabric to prevent fraying. Some synonyms for pinking shears are scalloping shears, zigzag shears, and notching shears. Scalloping shears are similar to pinking shears, but create a curved edge rather than a zigzag. Zigzag shears are the most common synonym for pinking shears, as they create the same type of cut. Notching shears are a bit different, as they create a series of small cuts rather than a continuous zigzag. These synonyms can be used interchangeably depending on the desired effect on the fabric.
