  • Has heft, large, sharp
Pattern Name: Edge Dressmaker's Shears Style: 8" Stainless Steel
Super sharp. Handles don't catch my thumb, have an appropriate amount of weight to the. I find the weight helps balance them if that makes sense. Using for sewing.

  • Great value
Pattern Name: Edge Dressmaker's Shears Style: 8" Stainless Steel
These scissors remind me of my grandmother’s scissors, they are sharp. The grip is just right , they glide through the fabric. Love the case it comes in, these are the best pair of scissors I have had. They cut very precise. No problem with stiffness opening and closing. Very easy to use for a beginner like me ... show more

  • Fantastic shears!
Pattern Name: Edge Dressmaker's Shears Style: 8" Stainless Steel
Sharp as a razor, perfect weight and heft, smooth opening action around the pivot (I don’t have arthritis, but my hands aren’t super-strong), and a perfect length: I love these Gingher 8" Dressmaker's Fabric Scissors. They are a joy to use. My old Weiss shears needed sharpening, but I couldn’t find a service within a 45-minute drive from my house (or any place that was reasonably priced for labor and shipping), so I bought these on a Ginger promotion. So glad I did. ... show more

  • Part of my great Gingher lineup
Pattern Name: Edge Dressmaker's Shears Style: 8" Stainless Steel
I'm going to use this opportunity to praise all of the Gingher product in my selection of notions and tools: Pinking Shears ***** I was tired of fighting with the plastic-handled cheapies that I learned I couldn't get resharpened and got a couple pair of these. They're sturdier and easier to use than the cheapies and give great results. Knife Edge 8" Shears***** After using my friend's while sewing at their home, I knew I'd found the "good" pair of fabric scissors I needed. These stay sharp, don't feel too big in my hand, and I can use them with my left hand as well, which is always a huge win in my book. Knife Edge 5" Sewing Scissors***** I work on a lot of doll clothes so having a smaller pair of excellent shears makes cutting out those patterns much easier. Gingher Epaulette 3.5"**** The cutting surface on these is fantastic. The only reason these get a 4/5 stars is b/c I do find it hard to get my fingers out of the holes due to the way they're shaped. One of the best parts about owning these is sending them back to the factory when they need sharpened is pretty simple, especially for the pinking shears. ... show more

  • Excellent, but not the best fabric shears on the market
Pattern Name: Edge Dressmaker's Shears Style: 8" Stainless Steel
I compared the following fabric shears, listed in order of how well I liked them: 1. The Kai 7250: 10 inch Professional Shears N7250 (7250) - Professional Shears 2. The Gingher 10 Inch Knife Edge Bent Trimmers (Note: I list these here because I prefer this length, but I only tested the 8" and 12" models below.) 3. The Kai 7300: 12 inch Professional Shears N7300 (7300) - Professional Shears 4. The Gingher Knife Edge Bent Trimmers 12 5. The Gingher G-8T KE Tailors Shears, 8-Inch 6. The Gingher G-8 8-Inch Knife-Edge Dressmaker's Shears 7. The "Kai 110: 11 inch Tailoring Shears S-110 (S-110) - Professional Shears" 8. The "Kai 7240-AS: 10 inch Serrated Edge Shears N7240-AS (7240-AS) - Professional Shears" I bought all the Ginghers on Amazon, and all the Kais from their web site (Amazon doesn't sell them). I evaluated them by cutting eight 4" long layered sheets of lightweight cotton fabric at once. My criteria were: - smoothness of cutting - was the edge straight, or did it wave? - comfort of scissors (hand position, weight, tightness of grip) - how often did I have to open the scissors to cut the 4" fabric? With all 8" shears I had to open them too often, resulting in more effort needed to get a straight cut. With all 12" shears I had to open them too wide, which was difficult even with my very large (size 10+) hands. I thus settled on a 10" pair. The Ginghers are all excellent -- better than any of those colored-handle shears I've tried. They are rumored to last 25 years, and they're not that expensive ($25). Of those, the tailoring shears were ever-so-slightly smoother than the dressmaker shears. Not sure why. But the Kai 7000 series were simply better. They're smoother, lighter-weight, sharper, nicer engineering, and they offer a $14 sharpening service. Wow. Them's be some sharp scissors. Holy cow. Did the "let's gently run my thumb perpedicular to this blade" test and a minute later realized I was bleeding... Didn't even feel it. Must also say the customer service was top-notch. They sent me the 3 pair I wanted to test in advance, and didn't charge my card till I picked the one I liked best. Yes, they're $70. But Gingher's 10" pair are $50, too. If you're looking for the best bang for your buck, I'd get the "Gingher G-8T KE Tailors Shears, 8-Inch" ($25). If you're looking for the best fabric shears period, I'd get the Kai 7000 series (the 10" ones for me). Update (01/09/2013): A fellow reviewer pointed out to me that Amazon now carries some of the Kai shears. I have added links above to those they carry at this time. And I still recommend looking at the manufacturer's web site. They offered me super service -- really above and beyond. ... show more
