Would love to know more, mine is like super dull and so bad, I have to rip one stitch at a time - painful (slow).
|
i think a new one as they do get dull i also like the thinner ones
|
I like the Clover ones best too.
|
The Clover white one-BEST. Others seem to have too large a tip to put under a stitch and the little inside curved blade not sharp enough to cut hot butter!

I like the Clover seam rippers and if they are still available, they did have some that are flat and don't tend to roll away if you put them down. Last time I saw them, I bought three and still have two tucked away!
|
it certainly is an intersting topic I believe, glad to hear from others on this. I may try the clover brand, I do like Fons & Porters products. There must be some really decent seam rippers somewhere.
|
I don't know what brand mine are, but I didn't pay much for them. I probably bought them at WM. I have two and have had them for years. They both still work fine.
|
go to quilter's home dot com and search out the article they did in that...they tested a few different ones and proved that cheaper is usually better in the seam ripper dept... I love my tiny little one that came with my Bernina...and I love the blue handled Dritz deluxe...I tried the surgical knife ones and gave that up really fast....NOT for me!
|
I use a cheap one from Walmart but if I can ever afford it I would love to have the Alex Anderson 4 in 1 tool. It has a flat-ended presser cap for finger pressing, folding, and burnishing, BERNINA seam ripper, pointed wood end cap for turning bias tubes and an extra-long stiletto. Is very cute.
