I have just spoken with a representative from Gingher. Fiskar did buy the company out some time ago.
Gingher was a privately held company. The rep told me that there are two weights of Gingher scissors now. The all metal ones are forged in Italy. Whatever the others are made of are made in Taiwan. The country of origin (not the words distributed by) is marked on the scissor. If you have a question about your Ginghers, you can contact the company by calling the 800 number listed on the Website. Gingher warranties are still in full force. You can find out about them on the Website or by phone. The Gingher Website and the phone contact are among the easiest to navigate that I have dealt with. froggyintexas

Anyone have another idea where to find them? Joann's is no.
