The Clover white one-BEST. Others seem to have too large a tip to put under a stitch and the little inside curved blade not sharp enough to cut hot butter!

it certainly is an intersting topic I believe, glad to hear from others on this. I may try the clover brand, I do like Fons & Porters products. There must be some really decent seam rippers somewhere.

go to quilter's home dot com and search out the article they did in that...they tested a few different ones and proved that cheaper is usually better in the seam ripper dept... I love my tiny little one that came with my Bernina...and I love the blue handled Dritz deluxe...I tried the surgical knife ones and gave that up really fast....NOT for me!

I use a cheap one from Walmart but if I can ever afford it I would love to have the Alex Anderson 4 in 1 tool. It has a flat-ended presser cap for finger pressing, folding, and burnishing, BERNINA seam ripper, pointed wood end cap for turning bias tubes and an extra-long stiletto. Is very cute.
