@thehogring #thehogring @kc_tool #kctool I have collected over 50 pairs of scissors in my shop over the 3 years of being a upholster but this pair by far is my favorite and most meaningful gift i was given at my wedding. its was given to me by my older sister who i am very close with. She was a strong supporter and influence to me when growing up and her acknowledging my new love for Upholstery meant so much. these pair of scissors are 100+ years old. A good friend @padesignz also had some influence on this gift he built the custom box specificly for this pair of scissors and sharpen them to be as good as the day they were made. thank you so much phil and thank you to my awesome sister for always being the best sister a little brother could ask for.
