I have arthritis in my hands too and I found a new rotary cutter online and have been using it over a year now and it is the most comfortable ive ever found. its made by singer and its pink I bought it cause it was cute and looked comfy, I didn't dream how comfy. ive even bought a spare and got one for my niece as well. anyway they make scissors as well with the same grip covering although I don't have any yet im just not a big scissor user either except for cutting thread and I have tons already. I do have 2 lg pairs that I use once in awhile both are ginghers 1 lightweight and 1 heavy. just thought it was worth mentioning joanns has them and so does hobby lobby I even think I saw a couple pairs at walmart.
