Question Pinking Shears or Pinking Rotary Blade?

I am in the middle of pinking the edges of some fabric before I wash them. I didn't do it the 1st time I washed some fabric . So as I am using my pinking shears (Fiskars) to do this job, my hand says to me "stop...take a break". Looked on here about pinking shears and I see some people use a pinking rotary blade.
I have a small hand and was wondering if maybe I should purchase the pinking rotary blade to keep my hand a happy hand.
The previous 2 WIP I did not wash the fabric...but since this one had so many different colors and fabrics from different stores (2 LQS, online fabric and Hobby Lobby), I thought I should wash the fabric. Maybe I didn't have to...but I did.


So back to the original question...should I buy a pinking rotary blade OR is there a better Pinking shear out there?

Thanks for any and all help you can provide to alleviate my painful hand.
