I am knee deep in mask production for my husband and his Coast Guard co-workers, I needed something to clean up the loose threads and fast. Amazon bless their hearts were able to get these to me with same day delivery. The snips are incredibly sharp, cut perfectly every time and do a great job of snipping out seams when I don't feel like tracking down a seam ripper. They are also doing a fantastic job of cutting elastic. They are fairly light due to the size but definitely have the substantial feel that you expect of high quality scissors.
I plan to purchase more to keep near my other sewing machines. I have no experience with the lightweight version that Gingher also makes but I'd say if you can afford these get them. You wont be sorry.
I find these too thick for that purpose, you can’t get close enough to the fabric and it’s frustrating.
They are great for random thread snips here and there though.
However they are quite heavy, so people with arthritis or other hand issues may want to find something lighter for repetitive tasks.
