Favorite Scissors ??

A place for idle chatter and discussions on non-paper crafting topics.
So, my CutterBee scissors are no longer cutting cleanly and I need to get a new pair of good scissors. What are your favorites? I have the Tonic ones that cut through most anything and don't get sticky stuck on them, but don't care for those for small spaces.

I have Cutter Bee & Fiskars and like them both equally well. I bet that Kathy & Trudi (Queens of Fussy Cutting) can give you the low down!

I have Cutter Bee and Tonic as well as several "big" scissors. When I fussy cut something small I always go to my Cutter Bee. Mine is teflon so it resists the sticky stuff. I don't really like the way the Tonic feels on my hand; it seems clunky to me.

I have several different size Fiskars. Love them. {Until Bob uses them to cut the dogs hair from her eyes! LOL}

I use Katrina's school scissors, Walmart "sewing" scissors, and tiny curved nail scissors...or whatever is handy!

I also have Cutter Bee and I love it....I also have two sizes of Teflon scissors and they are great no sticky tape on them.

Thank you all! I'm off to the store, well, as soon as I'm done with work in a few minutes. Sounds like I'm replacing my Cutter Bees with another pair of the same.

I still yell at the kids and hubby when they grab my sewing scissors! I actually have to label and then hide them so they don't get used on paper!
