I have several pair I use for different jobs, so I wonder if I am being too picky about my use of scissors.
If you have ever papered a wall, you know you have to use razor blades of some sort to trim the paper. Those blades get dull, dull, dull, very quickly. My experience with scissors before I got picky was that cutting paper dulled my scissors. Woe to the person who uses my fabric scissors for paper. froggyintexas
