I have a pair, I think. They are like pliers instead of scissors. You just squeeze and they are spring loaded and open back up on their own.
Mine are Fiskars, a brand I love and trust because of their warranty. I have not used them as of yet. They are still new. I started on a "rag sewing machine cover"...I don't think I'm going to quilt it, not sure, but it is the same concept. I do know one thing!---Those scissors have the sharpest edges and tip on them of anything I have ever seen!!!!! They're like two extremely sharp knives OR thick RAZORS. I'd say they'd work very well on the jeans!! Just be careful with them...I'm afraid to get them out! :roll: (not really)
I got them at Wal-Mart for around $10.
