For the scissorholics:

I have had a pair of these for years I simply love them... They cut button holes so accurate... You will enjoy them once you start using them. Suzanne

very unusual, never seen any like them.
Hugs pam.

Nope.. never seen a pair like this before either

I have a pair of these. I got them when cleaning out my grandmother's house. I remember her teaching me how to use them when I was a child. I am glad to have them now. Joyce

Oh, man.....now I have scissor envy!

I have a pair around here somewhere, lol.
In another phase of my life I was a seamstress.

Yikes, all the scissors I have, and I DON'T have these! Will have to look for some! LOL

I had a pair similar to these, but they seem to have vanished. I was looking for them not so long ago. I am sure they have found a great home. Shirley

Welllllllllli had some but they were a pain so i took them to the good will store lol

Those look FUN!! Nope, never have seen this style but thinking we all should have them too :) Where oh where is Mr. Dennis?? Sure hope he is ok...

you are just teasing poor Dennis .

Sue, scissorholic seems so harsh. Maybe "member of the scissors chat group"? "cutting challenged?"

Seems that I am younger than I thought - I have never seen a pair like that! Thanks for sharing.

My mother had a pair of those. Came in handy for blouses. The edge of your fabric should touch the inner end of the blades, so all buttonholes are at the same distance of the edge and the screw adjust the length of the cut.
Nice to have one of those!

I have a pair of these, i will check which ones when I go back to the green land. G

I have added a ebay link for buttonhole scissors as its intrigued me. Also do Google images buttonhole sissors and a huge amount of different ones appear. Happy hunting folks or scissorholics

Thanks, I'll check this out just for fun...I'll bet Mr. Dennis is having a conniption fit!!! Do you suppose she did this on purpose....???? Nah! LOL

I've never seen anything like this; wonder where and who makes them. Have you made a buttonhole to try them on yet? Look intriguing. :)

I have a pair of button hole scisssors but they don't have the curved and shaped tips:( Hope you enjoy using them.

Sure wish I did!

I don't have a pair of these -- it looks like I might need them though. ;)

So many things we need (even if we don't yet know what they are!)
