Questions about the product Hand-forged medieval scissors with leather handles

What material is the handle of these hand-forged medieval scissors made of, and how should the carbon steel best be cared for to prevent rust?

The handle of these hand-forged scissors is made of leather. To optimally care for the carbon steel and prevent rust, the scissors should be thoroughly cleaned and completely dried after each use. If they are not going to be used for an extended period, it is recommended to lightly rub the blades with an acid-free oil (such as camellia oil, Ballistol, or, if necessary, simple cooking oil).
Which historical periods does this hand-forged pair of scissors cover, and for which craft activities in medieval reenactment is it particularly suitable?

These hand-forged scissors cover a broad historical spectrum, ranging from antiquity and the Viking Age through the High and Late Middle Ages to the Renaissance. In medieval reenactment, they are particularly suitable as an indispensable tool for authentic camp crafts, such as cutting fabrics and parchment, working with thin leather, as well as for fine sewing and cutting herbs.

These hand-forged medieval scissors arrive carefully sharpened, ready for precise cuts in fabric, yarn, or thin leather. The leather wrapping on the handle gives them a rustic look and improves handling during extended use by increasing comfort and minimizing pressure points on the fingers.
How long are the hand-forged medieval scissors overall, and are they robust enough to cut not only fine fabrics but also tougher materials like thick linen or thin leather straps?

The hand-forged medieval scissors have a total length of approximately 14 cm and a blade length of approximately 6 cm. They are made of robust, hardened spring steel and, due to their sharp blades and stable construction, are suitable for both fine sewing work and cutting tougher materials such as fabrics, thin leather, or leather straps.
