I like my kai embroidery scissors. No idea what their larger scissors are like.

I bought 8" gingher dressmaking shears when I was doing custom sewing back in the 1980's, and I am still using them. (most of my cutting now is rotary) My husband has always done the sharpening (he sharpens my knives too). I have no idea if they still are the same quality though. . .

when my Mom passed 6 years ago, I found another pair of the exact scissors that looked near unused, She had not sewn for about 30 years before she passed, so I expect they were not much newer than my set. So now I've got a spare if I ever need them.
