Thanks again for all of the suggestions! Didn't get a chance to try them out at my LQS so I hope they work with my ShapeCut Plus ruler!
I ordered a Gingher (since I have many of their scissors/shears) and a Martelli - thought I'd give it a try since I have a bit of carpel tunnel and safety for my daughter. I used 50% off coupons at Joanns. By the way, Martelli's website has two discounts available - best one is 30% off for first time customers; the other is 20% in their monthly newsletter that I downloaded from their Facebook page.
