Anvil #70 Left Hand Tying Scissors

[cphubert 0]

Anyone have any Anvil model 70 scissors they want to part with? They are left hand and no longer made, and I am on my last pair. Going back to back to right hand scissors, any southpaws try the adjustable scissors (with the knurled nuts) how do they hold up? Until the model 70 I cut righty but find it hard to keep them in my hand while tying. Any advise from other southpaws? Thanks in advance.

Why not sharpen the special LH scissors?

 

Easy and quick by hand with the new diamond sharpening tools by DMT and EZlap companies.

Yes I'm sending them out for sharpening, the last pair only lasted a few sharpenings before mismatch on the tips was uncomfortable.

Call Anvil. They may still have a pair, or have a suggestion on sharpening.

My sister sent them out for sharpening (she's a hairdresser and uses Anvil). I found left hand tying scissors online in the UK at FLY FISHING TACKLE CO UK I ordered them. Thank god for BREXIT they where 23.00 sterling without shipping.
