These scissors are a treasure. They remind me of my mother's shears she had for sewing. As children, we were under strict orders to NEVER touch her shears and she was emphatic that they ONLY be used for cutting fabrics.When she began teaching me how to sew I was able to use her beloved shears which cut cloth perfectly each and every time.
Sadly, I've never found a pair of scissors like my mother's beloved ones until NOW.
These are quality shears with a capital Q. The craftsmanship that went into these shears is very evident. They arrived in a beautiful box, with a plastic sheave over the blades. I pulled them out and could smell and feel the oil that had been thoughtfully applied. My first impression was deja vu, my mother's beloved shears have been reincarnated!
FINALLY someone has made top rate shears at a fair price. These are not cheap in cost, but their quality is superb. If you take your sewing or artwork or day to day life seriously, then you want the right tool for the right job.
These scissors are simply FANTASTIC.
I am updating this review because I needed to trim my long hair. The ends had split and it was making it hard to wash and comb. On a whim, I realized that the best scissors in the house were these Evergreen ones, so I decided to trim my long hair with them. Amazing! I know this is a bit unorthodox, but hey, the 9 inch blades were long and super sharp, so I was able to trim my locks neatly. I even received 2 compliments from folks that didn't realize I had trimmed it myself... with these shears.
I gave these 5 stars because the scissors are EXCELLENT quality to last a lifetime.
