When to choose it

The 7250SE is the 10-inch Kai shear to compare when fabric tends to slip as you cut. Its micro-serrated edge is intended to grip slippery fabrics. That difference is relevant when you need to keep the edge of a loose cover panel aligned as you advance the blades.

The plain 7250 is the same nominal length, so you can compare the cutting edge while keeping the overall size steady. If you are choosing between the serrated 7230SE and 7250SE, Kai says the extra inch in the 7250SE is in the handle. Compare hand space rather than assuming a longer blade.
