Finally.

Sometimes, things take a lot longer than one thinks possible.

Case in point? Well... I've been looking for a blacksmith willing to make shears for me for ages. Probably best if I don't try and find out exactly how long! It's been more than a decade for sure though. 

A lot of people were interested at first, but then it never worked out - most of the time, I was just ghosted. However, I have finally found somebody to make them for me, which means that they are now available in the shop.

They are small, like many of the originals were, with about 13.5 cm length - and they will cut fabrics very well. I've tried all of them on different kinds (linen, wool, and silk), and they did manage all of them fine. 

And now we will see if other people are as over the moon about these as I am... I find it hard to believe still that they are now really here!

Yes, about all blacksmiths that I have talked to agree that they are trickier than they seem to the unknowing eye! And now I'm curious - any tips your partner has on what to do or not to do?
