Review on Fiskars Softgrip Pinking Shears with 8 Inch Blade (98987097J), Comfortable Softgrip Handle by Jen Slocum

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The tip of the scissors will not pierce the fabric.

I was very excited to get them, I went to Joanne Fabrics for a pair and they want £40 for the cheapest Fiskars scissors (they only had 3 to choose from), they looked no different than the 40 you had less than half of them with Joanna. So I decided to buy Revain, maybe I shouldn't have. I got out some test fabric nothing crazy just a few scraps of thick quarters I had from a previous project, the back of the scissors worked fine then I got to the last inch. or so they absolutely don't cut any further, just started pulling out the fibers so I had to open the scissors again, line up the teeth so it doesn't look wobbly and finish the cut like that. As you can imagine, cutting takes longer. I threw away the outer packaging so I guess I'm stuck on these things :( I was expecting more from the Fiskars name.
