Oh dear - another pair of scissors just purchased. They will be fantastic for jump stitches as they are so flat - well that's my excuse.

How cute! I hope you get many years of use with them. And they won't run away as my missing scissors seem to have done.

Thank you Karen. I will be surprised if they last very long as they were very cheap but they 'snip' beautifully!!

I have just noticed that the tip does look curved - it is in fact straight Christine.

Perfect ( or should I say Purrfect) colors for Spring! They are very cute and they look like they will snip well too.

Thank you 'R'. I also think that it is a cat but other Cuties see it as a bear. It does have the word cat but I think that may be the make!!

I also have a black pair of these in what else....the cat design....someone very special sent them to me........I did have to buy another pair of curved snips (the squeezer type) as all mine have dulled and I don't know if they can be sharpened?

I so nearly bought the black ones but decided on the pink/ blue. Love them.

I saw these as a set of several on Shoppers Rule a while back.
by graceandham 12 Apr 2014
There is more than one brand of the squeezer scissors. I call them circle scissors, because they circle back around. One brand I have is serrated, the other is not. Both can be sharpened, but of course you loss that nice serration. These are my "go to" scissors. Sharpen with the finer (duller, smoother) side of an emery board, always going the same direction to the end of the blade. About 5 or 6 strokes on the cutting edges and one or two on the back side of the blade just to catch any little nicks. Be happy.

These are precious!! I saw a new pair on a webinar today . There were by Fiskars and were called Amplify Razor Edge. They come in 3 sizes and are for cutting heavy and hard to deal with fabrics. Does anyone know of these and how they work? I looked at prices and "All Stitch" appears to have the best price so far that I have found. Need your input! Kay

If they work for the jump stitches great, I haven't anything that I like exceptionally well for that task. these are cute scissors. Dennis must be passed out on the floor of his man cave since he hasn't commented on this post. LOL

Do you not think that CAT might be the make?

The ears don't look like cat's ears do they?
