    Default what scissors?

    I never usually buy expensive scissors, but I get sick and tired of them crapping out within a short time.
    What does everyone suggest is a good reasonably priced brand.?

    I have ginghers that I've had for about 30 years and I love them. Recently on the forum different ones were raving about Kai scissors. I bought a couple of small ones and they are really sharp.

    I had a pair of nice Ginghers and was never really happy with them. This past year, I bought Kai scissors and I doubt I would ever buy another brand.....I LOVE THEM!!!

    My favorite pair is my gingers scissors. And I love my little stork scissors too!

    I buy only KAI scissors. They are reasonably priced and you can't beat the quality and precision. I get the best prices by buying them on Amazon. Until I discovered KAI scissors I bought only Gingher.

    Heads up to Lefties, too! KAI are the only scissors that are TRUE LEFT HANDED - so if you need comfort and accuracy and are left handed, this is the way to go.

    Love Ginghers though and like our Irish friend - I love my stork scissors.
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??
