Members dikman Posted July 9, 2020 Members Report Posted July 9, 2020 Something a bit different, bought them yesterday. Went to a second-hand shop chasing a bench grinder that they advertised but it was already sold. Looking around I saw these. I have a couple of pairs of cheapies that use AA batteries, and I found them very handy for cutting strips of material to make patches for my muzzleloaders and cleaning patches for all the guns. I knew that this model of scissors was very good so bought them. I found the original receipt in the box - 2005! - so don't expect the battery to last but so far it looks good. The cutters have carbide inserts and after touching them up with a diamond sharpener it cuts well. Can cut material (of course), canvas, garment leather and thinnish veg-tan. For $49 I'm sure I'll find a use for them. Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500. Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)
