Were these Fiscars or look-alikes?
One of the advantages of the Fiscar Soft Touch is that there is no finger
pinching. I don't remember if they use this design with the scrapbook line.
One interesting note re Fiscar service on the ST products, at least, is that
you can get replacement springs when they give out (from overwork?).The last
time I requested replacements, they sent me a small handful! Would that
they would would put a quality spring in to begin with.
Any way, the ST line has saved my fingers from calluses.

Thanks for the suggestion Kathleen. I inherited my Fiskars Soft Touch
third hand and recently broke the spring. Someone is bringing me a
new pair from the U.S. as they are so much cheaper. I am too cheap to
buy another pair, and I am having to use a pair of Fiskars shears
instead - not nearly so easy. So I just wrote to Fiskars UK for a new
spring, or somewhere I can get them fixed. Great tip - thanks again.
