Trimmers
If your rug looks “done… but not done”, it’s finishing.
A trimmer helps you level the surface for that clean, professional look.
Carving tools help you cut crisp lines between colours and create 3D definition.
Start simple: make 2–3 rugs first, then add finishing tools when you’re ready to level up.
A tufting trimmer is used to shave, level, and shape the surface of a handmade rug. It removes uneven fibers and helps create a clean, professional-looking finish.
A tufting trimmer is ideal for leveling the rug surface, while electric rug carving scissors are designed for creating fine details, carving lines, and adding depth between colors.
Keep the blades clean, lubricate them when recommended, check for loose parts, and store the tool in a dry place to ensure long-lasting performance.
Yes. Tufting trimmers can be used on both cut pile and loop pile rugs, although trimming techniques may vary depending on the texture and design of your rug.
