I have stuck with Fiskars scissors over the years, mostly because they are easily available. BUT wouldn't it be nice if the manufacturers offered a sharpening service? As it is, as they gradually dull, they get relegated to paper cutting, and I have to buy a new pair. I always mark the new ones with a loop of ribbon, but I have now got to the stage that I have at least 6 pairs of larger, and 6 of smaller ones all for paper cutting! It's getting ridiculous around here!
