I rarely use regular scissors. My RA makes them extremely hard to hold and the bumps on my joints get caught in the finger loops. I always rotary cut fabric and use the Fiskars for anything else that needs to be cut or snipped. There are a lot of other uses for the spring-loaded scissors in addition to clipping for rag quilts. I've not used the Heritage, but I may look for them.
