      not sure if anyone is interested in, but guessing everyone owns at least one pair.
      me too. not only one pair, having a couple of scissors floating around..

      I'm an enthusiast on well made things/tools, so
      time to pay more attention to those beloved cutting tools….

      a new lovely pair of 7" scissors came in the other day:

            So, I ordered 2 pairs of the Ernest Wright scissors after seeing this….

            Somehow, my order kept falling through the gap and ended up waiting about 9 months for them.

            These were in the package as "so sorry we pissed you around" gifts....

            Foot and hand nail scissors...

                  Here's a pair pinking shears that I picked up at a yard sale for $0.50. (well made but somewhat wasted on me because I don't use them)

                    Some beautiful scissors! I love that "Putter" video btw. So cool.
