Years ago they used to make rubber inserts for the finger holes in dressmaker type scissors. I think some are still made but only to certain professions like hairdressers.
If you look at some Havel's scissors you will see a blue insert. Those inserts do make cutting a lot more comfortable.
I have long, skinny doublejointed fingers and can't keep the scissors from sliding.
Maybe those who have discomfort from cutting with scissors with no inserts should make the issues known to the scissors mfg. The mfg could offer inserts as a reasonable price. I switched to the Fiskars that squeeze. They might not be as good as the Ginghers but my hand feels better. I have one pair of Ginghers that I haven't used in over 10 years. If I could get inserts, I'd use the scissors.
