Unboxing Heritage Tailors Shears! Excited About Scissors and Buying Proper Dressmaker's Shears!

[@kanic12345]

I purchased the quilting scissors and also embroidery scissors (storks) a couple of years ago and am so glad I did. They are absolutely gorgeous and such a delight to use. I have only allowed 3 people to touch them (all three appreciate fine tools). I have just purchased the 10" shears (for me) and left handed kitchen scissors (for my son) and now the wait is on...10 weeks backorder! Can't wait to get them!

Will be worth the wait!

Great Video , your excitement was palpable! , and kept me watching till the end. I own 5 Ernest Wrights now , Turtons , 8” dressmaker , 10” Taylor’s and a pair storks ! Yet I can barely sew on a button !!! I too was mesmerised by the viral video showing the last 3 master putter togetherers. ( The Putter , by Shawn Bloodworth ) and just had to own a pair - The 10” Taylor’s are just sublime the weight the feel the stunning finish and so are the Turtons the kitchen shears their just a joy to use ….. I was expecting the Heritage shears from your first statement the 13” very heavy pair , which I’d love to own. I’ve also bought their rivals William Whitley est 1760 , they too are fantastic , especially nice are the 10” composite shears ( they cut Kevlar , Carbon fibre , Aramid ) Lockdown ‘s fault ! But I’ve no regrets. Every pair a jewel Regards Adrian

Thank you for your lovely comment. Sounds like you value great craftmanship and supporting small businesses. Thanks for watching!

[@michaelfourie345]

I cannot decide which to go for :) If you were really pushed, which would you go for? (Price is not relevant, but I can't afford both).

[@BarcroftLaboratories]

This company is fantastic, got my mum a pair of their scissors for her 60th birthday

[@ErnestWrightScissors]

Just saw the video! Thank you for your positiveness. Love from Sheffield.

[@blueladycouture]

You are most welcome!

[@kerry5586]

I have ordered a pair of the 8.5 inch ones: can't wait to get my hands on them! I am like a child waiting for Christmas!

[@blueladycouture]

Worth the wait!

[@kerry5586]

@@blueladycouture They are wonderful! Now I am thinking about ordering the 10 inch! Talking of these scissors, I was watching how you position your fingers: I had read an article on the correct way to use them and it says that the first finger should go in the slot in front of the finger hole and that then pulls the thumb into the correct position and makes them more comfortable to use and makes it easier to cut. I tried it on mine and it does indeed work. You might have tried them that way, but just in case you hadn't I thought I would mention it.

Fantastic video. Thank you

[@blueladycouture]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jackiejames4551]

Oh my, they are lovely! You are so lucky to own such a stunning work of true artistry. Did they come with instructions on how to care for them?

[@blueladycouture]

Aren't they just! They'll mostly take care of themselves, but I can send them back to be resharpened when needed.

[@eprohoda]

how are things?, Blueladycouture! professional upload.

[@carolinesimmill4962]

Very interesting video! Good to know Ernest Wright have survived and been producing dressmaker's shears for so long. The history of the steel industry was something I didn't know about and it is sad that so many companies had to close down in Britain. Do let us know how you are finding using the scissors, if they are heavy and very sharp it will take a little time to get used to. Thank you for sharing.

[@blueladycouture]

They are so sharp and definitely different to the cheaper, lighter versions, but very much enjoying them and their very distinctive sound. Even my hubby said he could hear them from his office across the hall! I'm sure they'll make an appearance in future videos.

[@NJase]

you know what this means right? To celebrate, I need to order a new skirt! 'cause that's logic ;)

[@blueladycouture]

Ha Ha! My new scissors thank you for providing new fabric to cut!

[@beccssmith6285]

Now for all the other sizes and types. Investment pieces that will save you money in the long term. My 1st expensive scissors are about 30 years old. Another of the same I sort of inherited (me the only person the family knew who sewed) about 20 years ago. 1 pair desperately needs a sharpen. I'm in Australia and I believe no one make scissors, cutlery etc unfortunately here anymore. I got excited not too long a ago. I was given as an extra, a whole big container of sewing notions when I picked up my Ebay overlocker bargain. Another pair. So thats 3 now, plus I was given duckbill scissors made in Germany, being kind of weird looking, I of course had no idea what they were or did. They definitely are something I didn't know I needed, they are fabulous and cut beautifully. Both scissors are worth more than what I paid for my overlocker I didn't really need. You never know what you might be given

[@blueladycouture]

Oh yes, I'm already thinking about some smaller more general purpose scissors as the ones I currently keep by my sewing machine are still causing callouses.

[@ririshow]

Interesting, passionate, educational and sexy! All at the same time. Very refreshing! Thank you. I expect my Turton kitchen knife anytime soon.

[@blueladycouture]

Thanks!

[@Dahna_]

the sound of the cut is similar to Ginghers. Kai sounds different. I wonder why.

[@blueladycouture]

Different metal quality perhaps?
