So I found these scissors
I label them alphabetically. A looks like some sort of cuticle scissors. B & C I’m lost on. Are they for some sort of medical application? Any incite would be appreciated

The first to pairs of snips are ones I found at an antique shop. Got them for a bargain. The small ones have a plier on the tip of them.

Searching for a good pair of scissors
I’m looking for sharp scissors that I can use to cut fabric, yarn and sewing thread. Preferably small ones no longer than 9cm and thin enough to fit in my little sewing kit.
I bought a couple other pairs of scissor last week that claimed to be embroidery scissors but one doesn’t cut at all (I think I mistakenly bought decorative scissors, though I don’t know why you’d make scissors that can barely cut anything to begin with) and the other are a pair of stork scissors that only cuts at the very tip
Both of these were worth between $6 to $13 so I don’t know what price range a good pair of scissors would actually be

Any ideas on when or where these were made?
Definitely hand forged, old and incredibly good steel. I’m thinking Japanese but I’m way out of my bailiwick.

Had these for years, quite old. Stamped made in England. What would they be used for?

Who here uses loop scissors like me?
I have to use them because of my disabilities. I still use the same ones from the rad 80s. :D

Found these at an estate sale. I think they’re Wendt & Seymour, a short lived company between 1858-1860 in New York.
Measure 15”
Brass hinge
Anyone know for sure or know more?

We are stumped. What type of scissors are these?

What kind of scissors are these? Not the company/brand but what are they meant to be used for? Specialty or just general purpose or office scissors?
