She does alterations, repairs, and custom sewing. She stays pretty busy at it, and all of her customers compliment her very skilled work.Like many others have mentioned, for a long time we both thought that Gingher scissors were the best. We were loyal to Gingher. Grandma has a wonderful pair of Gingher scissors. But we've now been struggling with the poor quality of late production Gingher scissors for several years. Twice, we've sent scissors in to Gingher for servicing, but they come back little better. Gingher scissor will variously grab in spots, not cut at the very ends of the blades, or be hard to close. Cindy had resorted to using a pair of $10 Fiskar scissors, which aren't great, but they cut better than her Gingher's. Wanting to help her with this problem, and after reading so many positive reviews, I took it upon myself to order her a pair of these Kai brand.Cindy has been thrilled with her Kai scissors. She'll talk about them to anyone who cares to listen. About her four different pair she says, "They;re comfortable to use, require very little force to cut even heavy fabrics, they cut the sheerest fabrics just as well, they are sharp, and the cut well right out to the tips of the blades."With the cost of even sending a pair of Gingher scissors to Gingher for servicing at $12 a pair, plus shipping costs to get them to Gingher, it's an easy decision to just throw them away. Then spend to only few more dollars to get a pair of these fantastic Kai scissors.I like using good tools myself, so I'm happy to help supply my wife with the best tools she can own. I was so pleased with my wife's reaction to her first pair of $22 8-inch Dressmaker Shears that we bought three more Kai scissors; this pair of Embroidery Scissors, an 8-inch pair of the Professional series, and a 10-inch Professional series. She's a professional and she deserves professional tools.Maybe Grandma will leave us the good Gingher scissors in her will, but there's still no way they can be better than these Kai scissors. We would prefer to buy an American product, but can't afford to subsidize poor American quality.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Now, After two years of using her Kai scissors almost every day. my wife says the three large pair still cut like new. She uses this pair of embroidery scissors every day to cut thread at her sewing machine. This is a LOT of use for these little scissors and they've finally gotten to where they don't cut well on the last 1/2-inch of the tips where she uses them the most. This isn't at all disappointing, but it is time to order another pair. Professionals expect to wear out tools eventually.Also, shortly after trying out Cindy's Kai scissors, even grandma put her Gingher scissors away for good when her beau bought her a set of Kai scissors. She also says, "Wow, I can't imagine how I got along without these." ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very precise and sharp. *by on Reviewed in the United States September 9, 2026* These scissors are the best on the market and I get the best price on Amazon! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful scissors *by on Reviewed in the United States September 14, 2026* Not another pair of scissors 😳 I have to keep them though as they cut through Liberty fabrics like butter unlike my now former serrated favs. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kai 5135 5 1/2-inch Embroidery Scissors - Kai 7250 10 Inch Professional Shears --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/6689286-kai-5135-5-1-2-inch-embroidery-scissors](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/6689286-kai-5135-5-1-2-inch-embroidery-scissors) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
