Got to agree with Tony. My two fav's are an older Thompson Anvil scissor and an newer anvil scissors.
HAS ANYONE tried the new SERRATED anvil scissors. They look like hey would be great for thinning out large flies where you need to put a large amount of fibre on and then want to taper the fly going toward the the tail. I am very impressed with anvil products !! Jerry Goldsmith Altamonte Springs, Fl.
