Steve,

Those BH scissors are like one of the two sets we have. Might be the same maker too. Ours are even sharp enough to cut button holes.

Never thought that button hole cutter tools could be such an interesting topic. I love the fact that even antique sewing machine tools were made with art, style and beauty.
