Hi Folks,
I'm in the market for a good pair of thinning scissors, but there's somany out there I'm not sure which to buy!! :-
Any advice / experiences you guys have would be gratefully received - perhaps then I will be able to make me mind up ::) :)

Hi Kelly
I had a similar question which was among the recent data losses. The advice given to me was to buy a pair of '46 point' scissors, which I did and have proved to work well. I don't know the brands available in the UK but the price range can be significant.

Hi Kelly,
I've just bought a pair of thinning scissors from Diamond Edge, they have a very good range. This link will take you directly to the thinning scissors page: http://www.diamondedgeltd.com/acatalog/Onl...cissors_21.html (http://www.diamondedgeltd.com/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Thinning_Scissors_21.html)
As Lee said the 46 teeth are the ones recommended for a Cocker, and Diamond Edge own brand ones seem popular (No 402).

Hi Kelly
I have just received the ones Gilly recommended from Diamond Edge - came in two days with the Coat King and Spratts 76 comb (as recommended on a previous thread).
Planning a hairdressing session soon!!

Hi Gerry
Did you get your Spratts Comb this week as I've got one on order and have been waiting for weeks :( :'(
-
Is that from Diamond Edge too Dessie? Maybe they're out of stock at the moment, due to everyone on cockersonline buying them all - I know delivery to the channel islands will take longer than mainland UK, but not weeks :-

Hi Mike
Yes it is from Diamond Edge. They have apologised and said they should be in soon, but I really want it now !!!!
First class post we get within 2 days, so not that bad ;D

Hi Dessie and Gerry,
I've been waiting for 4 weeks for my Spratts no 76 comn from Diamond Edge :( I was a bit put out to find out that someone had received one from diamond edge before me!! >:( unless of course you've been waiting longer than 4 weeks Gerry!!
I contacted them via email and they said to me that the problem was actually at the Spratts Factory end ?? ???
I think another email is required - after all they've even debited my card for it!! :o
Thanks for the replies about the thinning scissors ... but D.Edge aren't getting anymore of my money til I get my Spratts No 76 comb! >:(
;D ;D

I think I might be the culprit here. I've got four of them ;D Keep losing mine, sending for a new one and then finding the original. Never waited more than a couple of days for them. At the moment I know where two of them are. the other two are probably down the side of the couch :D Couldn't do without it, especially for the ears. ;)
-
:D Dont worry all - I didn't get my comb before you! They are out of stock - have just checked the invoice to see what they said re delivery, just says to follow. I won't get too excited when I see the postman tomorrow then :(
-
Doh! wish I'd read this thread before ordering and paying for my Spratts comb this morning!!
hopefully they'll still send my coatking so I can start work on reducing Romsey's ample coat .
