I have four pairs of Fiskars scissors, different sizes and points, all more than 10 years old, and two Fiskars cutting mats (18x24 and 24x36) that I love dearly. I also have a June Tailor (26x38 ) cutting mat that didn't work out well at all for cutting fabric (so I got the big Fiskars), but is great for cutting matboard, foamcore, etc with a mat knife. It's a hard surface mat. I have two classic (aka old) Olfa rotary cutters, 28mm and 60mm, no 45mm. My biggest dud was an Omnigrip ruler that I bought which I found to be not particularly "grippy", almost impossible to see the fabric edge through and generally very hard to read. It now has a new home with a member here. :D My very favorite notion is an Olfa frosted ruler that, to my mind, is the greatest type of ruler ever made! I definitely need to get more like it!
