You might be able to see from your records that I’ve been shopping with you for quite some time.
In one of my first orders I chose the small black handled scissors, which are excellent and still serve me very well, as is the case with most of what I have bought from you.
However, I was very disappointed that the spec of the above item was changed: it had two pines blades. Above is the curves blade version but every pair I have bought since, does but have that feature.
I suspect that is the choice of the manufacturer, but I implore you to tell them that, for one customer at least, this is very disappointing.
Please email me to see the photos. I’m very disappointed there too do but publish an email address, to which I would have attached the photo (and would give me a simple copy of what I’ve written.
Kindest regards
Emma
Hi Emma
I can see 2 from our records that you ordered from us back in 2010 & 2012 – however, we have no records of any orders since then.
Unfortunately we only have summary information for orders from so long ago, so I cant tell what items you ordered back then.
Over the last 15 years we have sadly seen many of the scissor manufacturers we used to use cease trading & have had to stop using a couple of others due to a major decline in the quality of their products.
I will email you shortly
This site is excellent, and I’ve shared it with several other Leftys today.
As a kid, I was beaten with rulers and had my arm tied behind my back for using the ‘Devil’s hand’ in school. I recently got a ‘left-handed’ spatula, and I cried the first time I used it. It was the first time I experienced that kind of flow between my brain and my body, and it made me so aware of the constant micro-violences that fill every day of my life as a left-handed person – essentially, living with an invisible disability. I just want this to be easier for future generations.
I’m a leftie
I have always been left handed.
Attempts to make me right handed were tried unsuccessfully in primary school.
I am an artist in watercolours and oils
I’m a lefty.
I’m a ginger lefty as is my father.
Im a blue-eyed, ginger headed, lefty. So is my father and brother.
I am left handed. Out of all the things I throw left handed. There is one item I really can’t throw left-handed. That’s a Frisbee. If I throw the Frisbee with my left hand, it barely gets anywhere. When I throw the Frisbee with my right hand? I can nearly throw it perfect. I find that to be a little strange, but it is true. What do you think?
Finally somewhere to get updated information on being left handed =)
