Thanks so very much for the information. I love my many pairs of scissors and want to take good care of them.

I love the idea of giving a pair as a wedding gift!

Thanks for the info. I was having a problem with gunk on the blade because I've been using fusible products.

Excellent advice! My Ginghers are 40 years old and I don't remember the last time they were sharpened! I never use them for anything but fabric. I should oil them. And take them for a check up! Thanks for resurrecting this topic.
