I can't remember - I have so many. I have everything from the Gingher ones that my Grandma gave me to ones I salvaged from my step-aunt's house after she died.
I will take a picture tonight when I get home.

Not even going to try to count them all. My mom had some hoarding tendencies with clocks, post-it notes, pens, plastic containers and, yes, scissors, to name a few. When we cleaned out her house, I grabbed all the scissors I could, especially all that could be used in the sewing room....

Ok, you guys are going to accuse me of gluttnoy. I have over 200 pairs. I have every size. I have Wiss, Gingers, Singer Friskars and brands I've never heard of. A few of my scissors are antiques. I have the neatest antique pinking shears. I have scissors in every room of the house and in the car. That does not count my rotarys. Can you tell I collect scissors?

Many scissors but my prized possession are my cutting shears from Barcelona. Spain. A gift to me from my sister's boss who traveled throughout the world due to business. He would tell my sister what the country was famous for and ask what she would like. My scissors have a higher steel content than usual and I have had them sharpened many times. The cut all kinds of fabric - no problems.

1 pair of shears, pinking shears, curved embroidery snips, rag quilt snips, spring-loaded rag quilt snips, and several pairs of little scissors for trimming threads.
Wow, more than I realized. But too many compared to some of you! lol
