The weaving shears is a fluff crafting script that applies to miscellaneous items, and is part of the Weaving tools family of scripts. It was originally released at Wavedancer 2006. It can cut a creature's pelt to convert it into a weavable item.

Analyze

A pair of oak-handled shears can be used to turns strips of skinning items into items that can be woven.
You analyze your oak-handled shears and sense that it may be altered with either a long or show description.  Based on the design, you realize that changing the noun would be impossible.  While the material it is made out of may be changed, you sense that making it anything other than metallic would be useless and would weaken the integrity of the shears.

You get no sense of whether or not the shears may be further lightened.

Usage Information

Verb First Third
CUT {pelt} WITH {shears} You cut the urgh hide into slender strips, stowing each in your cloak as you do. N/A

Additional Information

A single pelt can yield multiple weavable items. Cutting a pelt will cause the multiple converted pelt weavable items to be placed inside a worn container.

Eligible pelts include those acquired via skinning creatures. Only soft skinned objects work with the shears, such as pelts and skins. Hard skinned objects, such as carapaces, knuckles, and shells, do not work with the shears.

Restrictions

Noun cannot change. Must be made of metal.
