Thanks Tracey for sending your items to us. 🖐
We sharpened 5 scissors for Rosemary who uses them to cut various fabric. Rosemary returned 3 scissors to us as she believes them to not be sharpened correctly.
Having inspected the scissors we assess them to be sharpened to a high standard with sharp cutting edges and properly maintained inside faces. The scissors Rosemary sent are general purpose scissors which work fine for most purposes but can struggle on thicker fabric.
For reliably cutting thick fabric you do need sturdy scissors which don’t flex and ideally have slightly hollow blade faces.
We did refund Rosemary but as we assessed the work to have been done correctly we cannot accept any further orders from her. 😐
Mike sent us his set of singer sewing scissors with sentimental value having belonged to his mother.
They were not in great condition having notched cutting edges, being tarnished and rusty in places and with a loose hinge screw that could not be unscrewed.
Thanks Mike for sending your scissors, they are working well now. 🖐
