Pinking shears These are rather heavy scissors with large blades with zig-zag edge. They have a small hole for the thumb and a larger hole for two or three fingers which make them easy to use. They are useful for neatening the raw edges of materials that fray easily

Paper Scissors: This can be any cheap quality scissors that can cut paper. Pinking shears or dressmaking scissors should never be used to cut paper.

Button Hole and Embroidery Scissors: This is a good quality stainless steel scissors with sharp pointed blade for nipping threads and trimming off turnings. Any pairs of scissors should be stored in drawers when not in use and dropping them on the floor should be avoided as this affects their blades and make them blunt.
