When I read all the great reports on these scissors I went investigating.
Spotlight have a large selection of Fiskars products here in Tasmania.
They have two types of the spring loaded straight handle style.
The fabric ones depicted at the start of this thread at nearly $40 and Titanium multimedia ones suitable for paper at $30.
I couldn't justify that expense on a pair of scissors.
Last week I visited Spotlight as I needed a new can of fixative spray.
Low and behold 30% off store wide sale.
At $20 I allowed a pair of the Titanium ones to follow be me home.
Well, they instantly fell into place and fitted like an old glove, it was like I'd always had them.
They are just brilliant to use and I can't see myself using any of my other scissors except the large ones I use for rough cutting out sections of pages.
I should have bought them sooner.
As a retired auto technician I know the value of quality tools.
Why should I exclude my hobby.
Clive.
