/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

It really depends on what you are cutting. I have a small cheap pair for when I am embroidering/ cutting out patches, a medium priced pair for fleece, and some stupid expensive ones for fur. Then when they get to the point that I can't sharpen them anymore, they get tossed into the crap scissor bin we use to cut paper and everything else.
Most scissors will say right on the package what they are best for. I have also noticed the titanium scissors don't resharpen well. So spending the extra money for that is kind of dumb.
I also have a few rotary cutters (they look like pizza cutters but for fabric) And those are pretty nifty. The downsides are you need a rubber mat underneath and they tend to dull pretty quickly. The replacement blades are about $10 each. But if you need to cut a lot of something really fast, that's the way to go.
