So let me start up by saying these are absolutely beautiful scissors. They come out of the box extremely sharp. After a period of using them, though the blades do not line up well enough to continue to cut anything.
More difficult is that I contacted burrfication.com with a video showing my issue and have never received any response. I don’t know if there is a fix, or what. I gave a set of these as a Christmas gift and they are not inexpensive.
I tried to attach the video, but this format will not allow videos only photos

I always wonder. What type of situation do you ever need a Damascus steel scissors? Probably I can think one or two. But this scissor is beyond what I expected it to be. I am spending more time admiring it than acutally using it. The way it handles itself when you use it is nothing short of superb craftsmanship. It whispers elegance everytime you cut or glide. Everything cuts like butter. A collectors item for some but a rad scissor to those who are gonna use it.
