8" Original Orange-Handled Craft & Fabric Scissors, All Purpose

The wife's go to scissors. She uses them all the time for just about everything.

I'm a seamstress, and in my world, there is no greater sin than using sewing scissors to cut anything OTHER than fabric. Apparently, my son somehow never got that memo. After an incident involving my sewing scissors and a metal toy, I was left with a pair that looked like they'd been through a war. He insisted they still cut. 😒 The culprit has been reprimanded and the ruined scissors found their final resting place in the trash. 💀 Thank goodness for these new scissors! When they arrived, I immediately put them to work! They glide through fabric like it's butter. The precision is fantastic, and they feel comfortable and light enough to use for long periods. It's a true relief to have a pair that's sharp, reliable, and reserved for its one true purpose. These are an absolute lifesaver.

A good brand and sharp blades

Reordering these scissors. We keep a pair of these in various places in the house to always have scissors at hand. They do dull over time - we have had this pair over 5 years, so my hubby asked for a new pair for his junk drawer, but the edge lasts longer than many other comparable scissors. They are easy to wash, and as they are not iron, they don't rust, yea! The hinge is tightened firm enough that they stay closed when you close them - so they don't come open in the drawer - protecting you from cuts - but not too tight, so they are easy to open and close when using - it is not adjustable that I can tell. I will also see if the old ones can be sharpened, when I take my knives for professional sharpening next. They are light, so your hands don't tire as much when doing lots of cutting. The orange handles make them easy to spot both in the junk drawer and amongst the mess created by a project underway. These are multi-function scissors, not fabric shears, so they are too light for cutting lots of heavy fabric or heavy paper stock, but they are just right for small miscellaneous jobs as intended. The price is right to keep an extra set in case they go missing. They also make a pair for lefties (yea!) with a different color orange handle so that I grab the left ones😉

The Fiskars brand is my all time favorite brand of scissors. No matter what I may need to cut, it is almost always the brand I will intentionally seek out to use, even if another brand of scissors were sitting right in front of me just waiting to be used. I purchased this pair of Original Orange Handled Fiskar scissors to supplement my old pair of truly Original Orange Handled Fiskar scissors, since they were purchased back in the late 1960's for home economics and sewing classes, when those subjects were still required education for the girls alone, while the boys took shop. They have been used regularly since that time, and more recently have even substituted as box cutters and garden shears as well as household scissors. While Fiskars has designed other styles of scissors meant for different purposes, I went with the same style of scissors I had, as I wanted scissors that I knew would cut fabric without any problem. The old pair has a spot in the middle of the blade that has been damaged, so no longer perfectly cuts when I reach that spot. However, everywhere else on the blade is still sharp, the handle shape is comfortable, and the scissor is lightweight. The old pair still will slice right through paper, and you really do not even have to move the handle, but just push the blades against the paper to get a clean cut. These are great scissors, and really I think every household should own a pair of them if they don't already.

This is the best all purpose scissors that everyone should keep in their kitchen junk drawer. I never look for a different scissors unless mine is missing. They are priced great, cut nearly everything you need and last forever. My problem with them is I have teenagers and I think that is tied to the fact my Fiskars scissors have an ability to grow legs, walk away never to be seen again. If you can fix this issue let me know. Until then when mine vanish I'll keep buying another one.

Have not a chance yet to truly use them but they appear pretty handy for cutting paper

We all know that this is the best brand of scissors. These ones are replacing a pair that I took from home when I moved out 14 years ago that my mom had bought it the 80’s I think. They aren’t as heavy as the old ones, but they’re still fantastic. And truly easier to use since they’re a little lighter. Great quality as always.

Good

Delivery was super long but I knew that when I bought it. Scissors are what I expected them to be :)

I am very pleased with this pair of scissors and understand that it is one of the top brands available. They are comfortable to use and provide a secure grip. The blades are sharp and glide smoothly through my materials. Additionally, they are lightweight and offer great value for money from this particular seller.

フィンランドで買っていらい、このシリーズは愛用しています。 こちらは2代目ですが、布用につかってます。

Fantastic brand and always great quality scissors. Perfect for fabric projects. Have purchased this brand before.
