I have ginger's sissors in three sizes,also the pinking shears and the full sized applique/bill tip too. I love them they are a wonderful brand.
But, I have some fiskars that are the kind that spring back on thier own for crafts. Oh, and I agree about the thread snips, they save so much work at the sewing machine! I just got a pair of machine embroidery sissors for the quilting table that are cool too. They get right down there to the fabric and open by themselves like the fiskers.
The cutest ones I have are some very old ones in a velvet presentation box with pink satin inside. They are small sewing sissors, a thimble and a seam ripper that looks like a sword. By wilkenson sword. My sis bought it for me.
