    Old world craftsmanship cannot be beat. I have been a seamstress and designer for over 50 years and I recognize and appreciate a wonderful pair of shears. Great job. Thanks for the video. I just bid on a pair of old scallop scissors. I won.

    I have a strange urge to want to buy scissors. Also those shears were a bargain! The quality looks superb..✂️

      Considering those scissors, rusty, go for upwards of $150 on eBay.

    I could see the molds making a nice living room table. cover them with some clear resin for a smooth surface and attach some beefy legs or chrome formed legs it would look really nice. even some copper aged legs to give it that industrial aged feel.

    There's a huge medical scissors factory near my place but the company moved some operations to China to save cost but realized it's a mistake as the workers there doesn't have the flair to shape the metal unlike the boys here who can create many creative works with their hands.

  • @damohr69
    @damohr69 Před 3 lety

    75 pounds for a scissor that special and made of this steel quality from the old times is a joke...if you want these special type of scissors made today its mostly about 300..!

    5:12 MADE IN TAIWAN this is sad, this is only a milling factory, the forging comes from Asia and is polished and sharpened here... Is not a true factory :(
