Ted,

Actually what happened is that they took a pair of scissors and tried to cut the serrations off of a Spyderco and that's what happened to the scissors. :D

Good post though. Funny, I have the same scissors. :)

I was wondering why Sal was walking around with a pair of bright pink plastic scissors at the IWA show. :D

Hot d*, effortlessly cutting ZDP and S90V with the scissors. Now that's what I call a good steel.

Hmmm. Wait a sec - isn't the scissors' unobtainium steel also usable as a nice knife steel? I can nearly taste the next mule steel in front of me.

Great one Ted.

Arend would run rampant, making the world unsafe for Plain Edges if he ever got his hand on one :D

Hey Ted, does that pair of scissors cut VG10 and S30V as cleanly as that piece of paper :rolleyes:

Please tell me Ted. In that case I'll buy those scissors AND a Chinook III, Lava, G10 Delica, Spin, Alu CoPilot, :eek: :eek: . That will be an expensive pair of scissors.

Thanks for the laugh Ted :D :D ;)
