Most standard pocket or embroidery buttonhole scissors from Germany were smaller—around 4.5 to 5 long.

It allowed tailors and seamstresses to lock the blades at a specific gap length so they could repeatedly snip buttonholes to the exact same size without accidentally cutting too far into the fabric.
