What do you use your scissors on?

I love that this thread keeps going. Of course after asking the question, I've used my scissors a bunch of times. Really contemplating a black classic for office carry.

I found out something that may help the owner's of the old scissors on the go: If you carefully place the tweezer tip into the screw and turn the tweezer handle firmly but not too strong, and , you can tighten the screw that way without carrying any extra tools. works at least on 91mm.

Nice tip Gath

Welcome to MTO

While I'm not a big scissors user, I prefer to use the blades even for tasks where scissors would be easier

, I would feel naked without at least the tiny scissors on my Rambler or PS4.

Opening packaging, cutting fingernails, cutting paper and cardboard, zip ties. For the most part, a blade can't adequately do what scissors can. Sure they can, but it is awfully awkward (and impossible for some of them) to do these jobs with a blade or the awl/reamer.

Just used the scissors on my Style PS to help with a sewing project. Pliers went to work as well.

Fingernails, paper, packaging. I always carry SAK with scissors.

I do a lot of paracording and the scissors on my Climber are perfect.

I guess I'm the only one here who's used the scissors for snipping newborn kittens' umbilical cords?

A splash of rubbing alcohol or peroxide and it's ready to go.

(Apparently my new momma cats don't have all their instincts up to snuff and need some help, from time to time.)

The one thing I use my Style PS scissors on more than anything and the reason I will always carry a small pair of scissors if for trimming stray facial hair and nose hairs.

Don't worry. I don't trade or sell my Style PS's.

Trimming herbs & greens in the garden.
Especially with the scissors on the Rangergrip 71 / 172

Although I've now let mine go, the ranger scissors were a very handy tool in the garden.

Scissor-y stuff.
To be honest(this has been said before), I'm very Impressed with victorinox scissors. Very precise and capable at the same time.
You can trim your nails immediately after cutting a couple of heavyish cable ties.

Im still kicking myself for not buying that Ranger from you when I had the opportunity. Gosh I want one, but im totally unwilling to fork over the $70+ for one.
