    Thanks. That's good to know. I have two snips. I keep one by the sewing machine and one in my sewing machine case that I take to classes. Interesting that the pruning snips come with a blade cover. I bought covers for mine. I think they were about $1.50 each.

    I love mine to cut the edges of ragged flannel quilts. It is so much easier than with regular scissors.

    Why is everyone rushing to Home Depot for these when they cost less on sale at Jo-Ann's? For the blade cover? They do latch closed when not in use don't they?
