I did ask him to drop it all at the hardware store last weekend to get it sharpened - I hit a pin!! - but I think he was too embarassed by the looks of the scissors!
Even when I had kids at home they knew better than to touch mother's scissors. Hammers and screwdrivers on the other hand disappeared very regularly.
My hubby will enter the sewing room and announce "I need this cut" and hand it to me. He wouldn't even dream of picking up one of my pairs of scissors. He has his own pairs of paper cutting and package opening scissors. There are scissors of one kind or another in every room of this house.
