Biggest scissors in the world
World’s Largest Scissors at Arizona Science Center
“The Science of Guinness World Records” opened at Arizona Science Center last week — and set a new Guinness World Record in the process!
Arizona Science Center officially set the record for the largest scissors to cut a ribbon at an opening event. Clocking in at 10 feet long and 93 pounds, the fully functioning scissors were made for the exhibit’s grand opening, which took place on May 19.
Starting with a single book published in 1955, Guinness World Records has become a global multimedia brand with the ultimate goal of inspiring people to read about, watch, listen to and participate in record-breaking.
The 6,000-square-foot “Science of Guinness World Records” interactive exhibit has the same goal, while examining the science behind the world’s great record holders. From the world’s fastest human reflexes to the most consecutive pinky pull-ups, the exhibit highlights what people can do with enough time, practice and dedication — and challenges guests to attempt to break a world record themselves.

The world’s largest pair of scissors, located at the Arizona Science Center in Phoenix, Arizona, has captured attention as a Guinness World Record-holding marvel. Designed to look like an oversized yet functional tool, these giant scissors serve as a creative example of how even everyday items can become monumental. The concept originated from the Arizona Science Center team, who saw it as a way to bring something memorable to the center’s extensive array of interactive exhibits. Constructed with precision, the scissors are made to open and close just like a standard pair, showing how engineering can make even the simplest object functional at an unprecedented scale.
The scissors not only represent engineering prowess but also symbolize the Arizona Science Center’s mission to inspire curiosity and engage the public in STEM learning. By scaling up this household object, the center captures visitors’ attention and reminds them that science is everywhere, even in seemingly ordinary tools. The oversized scissors were built to celebrate creativity, but they have also become an icon for the center itself, appearing in marke
