Curved or straight

[bill d]

Probably covered in a thread somewhere but cant find it. Looking for opinions on curved scissors more accurately Anvil curved. I have uses the mini and standard versions was thinkin of buying a pair of curved mini. Much of a difference between the two styles??????

Thanks.

Straight are probs the best, maybe get curved for Muddler heads and booby eyes and such like...

Actually prefer curved for messing about with booby eyes...everything else straight. Like my male lovers.

Straight most of the time but the curved come in hany when shaping foam etc
