Hi guys,

I'm after a new pair of small scissors for making up rigs, cutting braid etc. I'm not interested in Carpy brands unless they're really good - I recollect seeing on here ages ago somebody recommending some from Amazon or eBay but can't find the thread.

Any suggestions would be welcome. Thank you

Get the Cuda Titanium Bonded Scissors from Amazon, £3.60 a bargain. Not suitable for cutting back vegetation though as I found out recently!!!

Agree with OG below,
The blue handled Cuda Titanium Bonded Scissors from Amazon are pretty good for braids and Mono's, cheap as chips and do the job.
Spot on

Bumping this, where do I go for decent rig scissors.

Both my TA ones and ESP are naff, so want to get some new ones that actually work first time.

Which ones should I buy?

I've been using the Solar ones now for the past year or so. Can honestly say they are the best I've used by a mile.

I've been using the Avid Titanium ones (yellow handle) for a couple of years, no complaints.

Sign of the times that, but I'd still get them at £10 a pair.
