We’ve been in this line of work for over 30 years now, and in all that time these are the best scissors we’ve tried/used.  Black color is just the start of what makes these ‘all business’ scissors.  They’re about 9 inches long overall, and sharp.  $35 each, free USA shipping.  Note we also have a thread trimmer shown in the photo – same maker, same sharpness, and easy to use.  The thread trimmers are $20 each, free USA shipping.
