    Handy, useful tool as an accessory to sewing

    posted by Perumal on 01/02/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    I use it mainly for trimming the end of thread before threading a needle. Fuzzy ends on frayed threads make it extremely difficult for the thread to go through the eye of the needle the first time, and this little scissor will put a sharp point on the threa...
    Cons:
    The cutting edges are ceramic, so brittle and liable to break if dropped.

    posted by ruetma on 02/15/2011 Certified Owner

    posted by alhaz on 12/30/2010 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
