CapeBSalar 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2004 B-Rad, Where bouts did you get them for that price in Ottawa? Are you sure they are titanium? That just sounds a little inexpensive from the prices I've seen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CapeBSalar 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2004 B-Rad, Hope you didn't take that the wrong way. I was just surprised you could get them that cheap. I did a google and this is what I've found Orvis Green Drake Outfitters 342 Richmond Road Ottawa, ON K2A 0E8 Tel: 613-828-1915 wonder if this is the shop? I'm going to send them an email. Cause I'd like to get a pair of these, especially if that is the price you paid for them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-rad 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2004 no offence taken at all That sounds like the right place I bought mine there about 8 months ago. If you go and they still have them for that price please let me know as they would make a great gift Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-rad 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2004 ok so all thing talking is made me second guess my purchase... so I went on line a =nd search dr slicks and found that I was mistaken, I'm sorry to say I didn't buy the titanium one but the tungsten ones. However They are and awsome pair. Oh well it was an honest mistake Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CapeBSalar 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2004 It's all good B-rad. I thought it was too good to be true. The tungsen scissors look just as nice in my opinion. I've never used anything other than cheapo sunrise scissors, that's the reason I've gone through at least 30 pairs, not kidding you. Couple bucks a shot not a big deal, they did the trick. Has anyone out there tried both the tungsen and the titanium and can give a comparison of the two performance wise? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-rad 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2004 lol well if spent that much on the cheap ones then you should have got the tungsten mine are 8 months old and still as shap as the day I bought them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peddler 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2004 Tungsten makes sense. I read this thread wondering what in the world titanium would bring to the dance other than a little lighter weight and a lot heavier price. I have the Dr. Slick (ain't THAT guy a genius!) tungsten, fine point and serrated scissors but my favorite and most comfortable are still the relatively inexpensive Anvil's with the two different length finger holes. They hide nicely in my hand and never have to be put down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
