This may sound strange but I have a pair of kitchen scissors that I use. They are nice and sharp and I keep them hid so no one else can use them. I use them when I'm cutting out applique pieces because they get the corners so well and will cut through several layers. I do have a pair of kitchen scissors that stay in the kitchen however. Then I've got paper only, scissors and then of course the thread ones and then all purpose. Everything else gets the rorty cutters. I started all this when the boys were still at home as they could ruin a good pair of material scissors for me right quick. So I learned to hid the good ones. :D :D
