Jerry, I got my new Anvil Scissors at the SLC show year before last. They shaped the tips to my specifications. I also picked up a pair of the serrated curved scissors. My Thompson ( Anvil) has cut many a mile of deer hair and still does a great job of cutting. I am in no way connected with the Anvil Company, just like their scissors.
