I own a few pair, but I could easily use a razor instead. Generally, I use the edge to cut thread rather than snipping. About the only time I use the scissors as a scissors is when I'm cutting hair or fur off a skin. I use a razor blade when I'm shaping packed hair or foam. As to being designed for tying, as long as they're sharp & fit your hand comfortably, does it really matter?

How many scissors do you have and where do you get them? I myself own appr 15 scissors so far. Get some from ff shops (Slick and Tiemco), but own in the meantime a couple which I get on fleemarkets. Some of them seems to be surgical instruments. Maybe I'm more or less a collector. Own over 100 bottles of wine,.... hm back to ffing Has anybody insight into scissormaker? Are these instruments really designed for tying, or are they selling surgical instruments as ff tools? Rene No virus found in this incoming message.
