I have a Fiskars ergonomic I bought years ago. I think they are still under $20. Bonus - I can use blades from HF!
|
Love my Olfa! I use the straight handle one, as I do cut with both hands~
|
I have a Fiskars that I have not found anywhere else. It is spring loaded. I found it on vacation at a Walmart, but haven't seen it anywhere around here. So either it is new and great, or I'm behind the parade and still like it!
To cut with it, you have to squeeze the two handles like scissors together. This lets the blade drop down to cut. (there is a lock to keep it open) Then when you release the handles (unlocked), the blade goes up where it is not exposed. and the handles go apart. Love it! I love it. My DGD can't squeeze it enough to get cut. |
love my old Fiskars, but also recently bought the Martelli (spelling?) and like it too!
|
I mostly use the olfa but recently got a bargain on the Gingher and love it too!

I have every brand imaginable and my very favorite is the Dritz, they say KAI on them and I love the KaAI scissors and the blades. If you haven't tried one, I suggest you do, they seem sharper and more sturdy.

:lol: I've been using the Martelli one for about 8 or 9 years and really like it. It's very comfortable to hold and doesn't seem to require as much pressure as some of the others I've tried. :lol: :lol:

I have olfa, fiskars and the grace. Love the grace, but you need the ruler to go with it.

Martelli! I get carpel pain and with it, I don't
