I have two pair of very sharp fiskars one long and a very small very sharp for getting in small areas and fussy cutting. I keep them only for applique and fussy cutting.

I recommend the serrated blade scissors because the serration "grabs" the fabric and pulls it into the blade. Smooth blade scissors actually push the fabric ahead of them, which causes the fabric to fray. Karen Kay Buckley isn't the only one who markets serrated blade scissors. Check out www.havelssewing.com and www.kaiscissors.com. I don't have any Havel scissors, but the Kai scissors are wonderful.
