I have about 7-8 old pairs of Fiskars spread throughout the house. DH knows if it doesn't have a colored handle, don't use it. My Ginger scissors are all in the sewing room where they'll be safe from someone looking to grab the first sharp thing he can find. He thinks sharp points are made to poke holes in cans and knives can fill in for screwdrivers. If I left a good pair of scissors around they'd get the same treatment if they were the first thing he spotted. There's only two of us in the house but you'd be amazed at how many "I don't know what happened, I never touched them" answers I get. It must be that blasted ghost we don't have.
