Gingher is Best! Oct 11, 2008
By Judith A. Brodnicki I've been given a pair of Gingher shears as a bridal shower gift (I made my own wedding dress) and they have been my favorites throughout the last 17 years. They are sharp right to the tips, an essential feature of the shears needed for trimming seams.
I purchased a second pair so that I'd have one to use while my originals went back to the Gingher factory for sharpening (a service they provide for a mere $7.50). I hope in time to have all Gingher shears in my sewing room!

Makes Cutting Fabric a Breeze Aug 04, 2008
By delicateflower152 I can't say enough good things about Gingher scissors. They cut through light and medium weight cloths like a hot knife going through butter. They operate smoothly and are well balanced. Further, with the dearth of scissor-sharpening options available these days, it is nice to know that Gingher will sharpen their scissors when that operation is necessary. I'm replacing all my scissors with Ginghers!

Too heavy for me Jul 02, 2009
By Jennifer M. Ryan I bought these scissors on the advise of my quilting teacher. She said how great they are & there is a lifetime guarantee that they will sharpen them for you. Apparently you just have to mail them in.
I have to admit the price is great! The presentation when you get the scissors is beautiful. They give you a black sleeve for the scissors & a lovely chrome plated box to keep them in. But when I lifted up the scissors they were too heavy for me. That is because they are top quality steel. I was going to return them but my cousin who is a quilter really liked them & bought them from me.
So I know it is a great product but buyer beware: it is not for people who do not want a heavy pair of scissors.

If there are heirloom scissors, these would be it. Nov 30, 2008
By AcousticSheep, LLC

It cuts through multiple pieces of fabric cleaning all the way to the tip. It's a bit heavy, but I like the feel of the weight. Take good care of them (don't cut tape or wires), have them sharpened, and they should last forever. Don't forget the left handed version too!

Gingher G-8 8-Inch Knife-Edge Dressmaker's... Nov 03, 2008
By Gene T. Blakely A winner. To me, they are by far superior to Mundial in feel in the hand and ... wow ... in cutting fabric ... seems to melt through the material.
I bought six pairs to give as Christmas gifts, and also went to Walmart and bought six pair of stainless steel scissors (pkg of 2 for $3) and put a tag on the Gingher scissors "cut cloth only" and on an enclosed pair of "el cheapo" scissors from Walmart a tag which said "for cutting paper."
