Our favorite scissors are the Gingher 8" dress shears. They are all steel and can be sharpened repeatedly and tightened/loosened in the center. They stay sharp, are well balanced and cut through like butter. We give a 25% off regular retail price, which is the total price you see in the listing.  These are an advanced, heavier pair of scissors. If you need a less expensive, or lighter weight option, I recommend the Fiskar bent orange handle we offer.
