If you can't afford an electric shredding machine or you simply don't like this idea very much, then the Shredder Scissors might be one very handy solution. This tool is pretty useful when space is a premium item in locations such as really small offices or, why not, at home; if you're not planning to destroy too much paper and you feel like investing in an automatic shredder would be a bit too much of an expense, the Shredder Scissors are a winner choice once more.

 

Now, there are some major security issues here as the Shredder Scissors are posing a more significant injury potential than the electric shredder.

 

While the electric paper destroyer has all sorts of fool-proof features that prevent the user from getting injured, this tool is as dangerous as scissors get. We're in fact looking at a multi-bladed pair of scissors, capable of cutting several narrow stripes of paper simultaneously. While a total of 8 blades is available, this gadget can execute 4 cuts at the same time, which is indeed less productive than an electric shredder but needs no wall outlet and can also be carried in a briefcase.

Enhanced caution is advised when shredding small pieces of paper as well as keeping the Shredder Scissors out of children's reach. At the same time, you cannot use this multi-bladed cutting tool for credit cards or optical discs so you'd better refrain yourself from such actions. The manufacturer also advises that no blade-sharpening attempt should be made in the case of the Shredder Scissors.

 

The tool is available for a rather cool price of only $20, making for a very handy accessory for your business briefcase in case you're planning to leave no decipherable trace of your printed activities. All in all, a nifty gadget for the traveling businessman.
