While he certainly had the intellect and ability to invent them, he did not.
It is most likely that scissors were invented around 1500 BC in ancient
Egypt.[1] The earliest known scissors appeared in Mesopotamia 3,000 to 4,000
years ago. These were of the 'spring scissor' type comprising two bronze
blades connected at the handles by a thin, flexible strip of curved bronze
which served to hold the blades in alignment, to allow them to be squeezed
together, and to pull them apart when released.
