SHEARS

General Discussion

…hello,
I have several scissors in different lengths. Good quality but the brand that I use does not make “shears” type of scissors; you know, the ones that is easy to cut without to stop…

Do you know a quality brand to recommend? Possibly an international order for me.

Thanks

…Speysurfer, those look interesting; not cheap.
Jrandy, I use the ones like Zackoopman posted. They are good but I m looking for the easy motion like those garden shears used by Reeves and many others.
Mine can cut pretty good but are made for fabrics, for a tailor so does not have a continuous cut on glass like the garden ones;

I got the Ghinger shears referenced in the other thread linked above. I can vouch for them. They are the best I’ve had yet for cutting cloth.
