That's me packed for the weekend at BFFI.  If you are going I am on the Guild of Fly Tyers stand in Hall 3, with my scissor sharpening kit and a few pairs of scissors for sale (only 7 pairs, so don't get too excited - they are the last ones available and so I took all 7 pairs. Alex Jardine had a pair of me last year and he swears by them - I shall sharpen them for him on the stand. After a full year of heavy pro use, they are still going strong, but I shall do them anyway.

Hope to see some of you there. Come and say hello - I won't bite.  :D

Where is it?
I don't need scissors but do you make them?

Make them? Scissors? No,  but I am factory trained sharpener and am an agent for Jaguar scissors. I deal with hairdressers and barbers mostly - then saw people were throwing away some pretty good fly tying scissors. Looked into them a bit more and found there are some fly tying scissors that are perfectly capable of being sharpened properly - others are just one used surgical scissors being sold to fly tyers.

Alex Jardine is quite a well known pro tyer - son of Charles Jardine.
