In film[]
In the 1990 fantasy film Edward Scissorhands, the eponymous hero of the film is an artificial human who has scissors in place of hands. Which really sucks if he has to scratch his balls! Ed's pretty adept at getting by with his scissor hands however, and he quickly becomes the local celebrity of a strange suburban town, using his gifts to give the ladies of the neighborhood extravagant haircuts and creating some really complex topiary.

Deranged serial killer Michael Myers was known to employ a variety of weapons in order to kill those that got in the way of his objectives. He used a pair of scissors to stab Rachel Carruthers - foster sister of his niece Jamie Lloyd, to death. [2]
