I feel your pain. I had a pair of Mundial, serrated edge that were wrongly used. Thank goodness I have another pair.
If you haven't tried them, you must. they have a straight edge you can only feel the serrated edge with your nail. boy do they grip and hold fabric. well worth the price for these babies.

What she said! Do NOT wait until Christmas!!!

Meanwhile, buy a padlock and lock your scissors together.

See all the comments about putting a padlock on the scissors
makes me chuckle, because my hubs also has lock smithing skills
and can pick almost any lock.

Go buy a few gun locks. The one's with the flexible cable, so you can lock the scissors up and chain them to your chocolate stash.

We have a utility drawer and tool boxes all have designated scissors. The scissors in the sewing room are off limits to anything else unless they are in my hands. When I first moved to Texas, I lived with my sister and her husband. I had a utility travel bag that had hair shears in a case. It was open. I had just walked in the house and caught him getting ready to cut some cardboard. I yelled ; emphatically for him to stop. I also asked him what business he had getting into my suitcase. He said he knew they were sharp but my big concern was him violating my space (suitcase). My son and I moved in shortly thereafter with current DH. I have scissors on my desk and on DH's desk. He learned a long time ago the value of scissors since his mother sewed.

Oh no. This would cause the long sit down talk here. The Karen Kay Buckley website has a special price of $81.95 if you buy the 4 scissors set. Grab the credit card and order the blade protectors too! It must be a guy thing because my DH and all three sons will do the same thing. When we were first married I walked up on hubby cleaning the tires on his truck. He tried to hide my favorite hair brush that he was using as a scrub brush
I don't have expensive or fancy scissors but I do try to hide the good ones. [ATTACH=CONFIG]548717[/ATTACH]

If he is indeed still alive, I agree he should buy you a new pair NOW. Some people are not raised to respect others property and need to be taught. I"m still teaching my husband. He broke a mug I got my last birthday from a dear friend when he had it in the garage! Not only that, he didn't tell me, just threw it away and I had to ask if he'd seen to find out what happened. Needless to say, he's in the doghouse for the foreseeable future. Some people's children!

Are you suggesting she buy an $80.00 set of scissors to replace a $20.00 pair? Too teach him a lesson perhaps.

It isn't a "guy" thing, my husband and our 5 boys have respect for my "tools" as well as each others. What happened was a lack of courtesy by not asking which scissors to use.


Oh, sorry to hear about your hair brush.

What they both said. My husband cut the rubber grips off his golf clubs with my good ones several years ago. After a 'chat' he didn't go that again.

I'm kind of surprised all these men lived through what they did. Or did they? lol
