Martha Stewart Fringe Scissors?
Hi all!
I'm thinking of buying these scissors cause they look kinda cool and fun! Do any of you have them and if so, do you recommend them?

I had a pair of these, but returned them because when I cut with them, the blades didn't cut evenly. When I returned them, they were out, so I just got a refund and never repurchased them.

I have them and love them, never had a problem. Sometimes my daughter and I just cut scraps for fun and make confetti, etc.

I just bought them; but, although I've played with them a little, I haven't really used them on a project yet. Mine cut evenly, which is a good thing.

I love mine. They are really fun to use. Great for cutting very narrow strips to weave for little baskets or just tiny weavings for cards.

I saw a pair (non-martha brand) in the clearance bin at Bed, Bath & Beyond this weekend. I didn't check the price, but thought I'd let y'all know.

I'm glad to read this and the other posts about them cutting evenly.. I think I'll go back and get me another pair.

Ah, American marketing savvy! I bought some similar to these sold as "manual shredders" from QVC on sale, 2 pairs for something like $12 or $14. Mine have more blades, making a slightly wider fringe. I like them, but they're not easy to control. I don't care if my fringe is uneven but if I did want precision, these wouldn't make me happy.
