I have a Gingher seam ripper, and I absolutely love it. It has a curved body that fits nicely in my hand. The "ripping tip" is like a razor blade, so it cuts everything and gets between anything. Plus I can retract this blade into the body for safety. I've been a seamstress for 40 years, and now I'm a quilter. This is absolutely the best seam ripper I have ever used. Hopefully I've uploaded a photo to show you. They say you only need the original blade, because it never gets dull. I'm still ripping away on my original blade (two years now) and it's still plenty sharp. But if you get the chance to buy one with an extra blade, do it. I now have a refill, but it was hard to find.
