Forged scissors are a good purchase if you are looking for scissors that will last your entire life. They are resharpenable, reparable, and contain no plastic or coatings that wears out.
These are made by Fiskars and are stainless steel but you can find some that are made by hand with other steels.
I use these for cutting paper, thread, fabric and thin leather.

Most of Fiskars scissors have a plastic-covered (orange) handle. Ones that don’t have them are very rare. And yes, when you see them there’s no way to tell whether they were made in the 1980’s or in 2020’s, because they will work the same and look the same either way.
These werent Fiskars, i think they were another brand listed in another comment (Gingher?) And solid metal sewing shears 😅
Ok, that’s a shocking thing to hear indeed!
Yeah, apparently it made a pretty solid notch in the blade. My survival of early childhood borders on impressive, they knew my mom by name in the ER
