But, no folding scissors?
I have about 30 pairs of scissors for the house. My good scissors are put up and away. 
I do like the japanese style loop handled scissors for outdoors.
My daughters have hair shears. They always trimming something.
Besides general scissors, gardening shears, and tin snips I also have an electric scissor I use to cut cardboard.
I have two pairs of basic Fiskars scissors that live in the kitchen junk drawer and are used for general scissoring needs.
Two pairs of tiny mustache / beard trimming scissors. Actually, three: two live in the bathroom and one lives in my dopp kit.
Three pairs of tin snips: straight, left, and right.
My wife has some obscenely expensive German brand of sewing scissors. She also has an expensive German brand of haircutting scissors.
I have several Leathermans and SAKs with integrated scissors.
I have a couple of pairs of gardening scissors, used for precision pruning small plants.
The junk drawer Fiskars and the mustaches scissors get used the most, by a pretty wide margin. The tin snips essentially never – I bought them for one specific job years ago and haven’t used them since–, the Leatherman and SAK almost never (I have both a favorite EDC SAK and a Leatherman but neither model have integrated scissors), the gardening scissors occasionally in the spring and summer, and I don’t believe my wife has used either of her German scissors in several years.
I had a cheap version of a Leatherman with the tiny scissors but I never found anything they would cut.
Oh, I forgot my Swiss Army knife scissors.
They will cut, just not precisely.
My actual pair of folding scissors work very good. They live in my med/bug out bag.
I just thought of another, I have a pair of golden(colored) embroidery scissors that look vaguely like a stork.
Bought 'em at a flea market.
Well,
The ones I use the most come from a 3-pack of scissors that I bought at Kmart back in the early 90s. These are the greatest scissors ever. They don’t have a name brand. They are just black handled, regular, run-of-the-mill scissors. They work great for paper or for fabric.
For smaller work, I have a Cutter Bee precision scissors. This is primarily for hobby work. It also works great for paper or fabric, but it is so small, it’s really only for building things like dioramas and DIY houses.
For outdoors, I have a Fiskars grass shears which, I must point out, is a piece of junk. I purchased two different electric grass trimmers, one by Sun Joe and the other by GardenPRO. They both do well.
I also have a Corona hedge shear that I used like twice before the HOA came and took out the hedge. Which I was perfectly okay with.
And I’m only including it because it’s so awesome, I also have a Fiskars lopper that I used to cut down most of a 40 year old oleander. I needed an axe and a shovel to take out the stump.
In the kitchen, I have two shears. One is a KitchenAid, which I primarily use to open packages. The other is a Wusthoff, which I can take apart to clean and sharpen (though it has never needed it). I use the Wusthoff to cut food like bacon or chicken. It works great for cutting tendons and trimming fat.
I happen to be a pretty big fan of Wusthoff products. The way I see it, if you buy a Wusthoff, you won’t ever have to buy another.
That’s about it, unless you include the wide variety of wire cutters I also have. One is for cutting plastic sprues. One is for cutting metal sprues. I also have several general side cutters for actually trimming wires.
I have, I think, a total of nine:
- A set of four I got from the Aldi random aisle last year, of four different sizes. IIRC, they were labeled to be “Dressmaker’s scissors”, “All-purpose scissors”, “Craft Scissors”, and “Sewing Scissors”. They didn’t say which was which, but I’m guessing that that list was largest to smallest (but even my sewing-goddess mom didn’t know what “dressmaker’s scissors” are). The two smaller ones are in my desk drawer at school, while the two larger are in my “junk drawer” (actually a junk box) at home.
- Another one that’s the same size as the second-largest of that set. I’ve had these for ages, and are my general-purpose scissors around the apartment.
- One each on my Swiss army knife and my Leatherman. The one on the Swiss army knife never worked very well and got worse as it wore out, but the one on the Leatherman is still decent (just very slow, since it’s small, and hence needs many snips). The one on the Leatherman is also just about the right size for trimming my moustache, whenever I remember to do that.
- A pair of scissor-type toenail clippers, which I use for only that purpose, and which live in the bathroom.
- A pair of tin snips, in my toolbox, for cutting sheet metal. This, I hardly ever use, and I’m not quite sure, out of all of the possible tools, why I have it. I think my dad gave them to me, but I’m not sure what he expected me to do with them, either.
Dressmaker shears have a thumb shaped hole and an oval shaped finger hole. And a longer blade.
Regular scissors may not.
As a lefty I’ve fought scissors forever.
When I found a good pair that worked for me, I bought them and hid them from everyone.
I can use scissors with my right hand, I just rather not. Weaker.
The best thing I’ve found are the spring loaded snipper scissors for tag cutting, string cutting and a little regular cutting. Invaluable.
One pair of small scissors.
I have a few sets of fabric scissors, old enough to be all metal. Some have been moved down from fabric to wrapping paper. I might have a set of pinking shears, but I’m not sure.
I have two sets of kitchen shears that come apart and can be run through the dishwasher.
I have plant clippers (two small, one larger for lopping middle-sized branches, one long foot trimming shrubs.)
I have tin snips that mostly get used to cut garden fencing.
I have bolt cutters
I have a nice small scissors for cutting hair, and a less nice one that came with the foster cat (whose owner disappeared. I’ve only used it for the cat.)
I have little scissors on some of my pocket knives.
I have tiny and very pointy scissors that i bought for travel. They are okay with TSA, and small enough to remove hang nails, that I’d usually address with a sharp knife.
That’s all I can think of now, but i bet I’m missing some.
Oh I have fabric pinking shears too.
Plus somewhere, a whole box of fancy paper cutting scissors. Sold when scrapbooking was so big. The kids love them.
Oh good grief…too many to recall. In the house, 2 pairs of kitchen scissors, a pair of garden scissors, some brush loppers, 3 tiny scissors on gerber multi-tools, a couple of sets of diag cutters. In my tool box at work, another 3-4 sets of dikes, 2 different cable cutters, tin snips, a c-7 cable snip, a big red key, 2-3 sets of end nippers, plus a few more that can’t think of right now.
Two to three “general purpose” scissors with weakish blades and plastic handles. One old pair of all metal heavy duty scissors. Two sets of “surgical” style stainless scissors (left over from an auto accident almost three decades ago but very nice for cosmetic work).
Two pairs of medium quality “kitchen” shears, plus one extremely heavy duty pair suitable for doing an autopsy on a turkey or goose. The wife has two or three different fabric scissors/shears but I’m not family with the exact type. Two pairs of hand shears for yardwork, and one big set (with expandable handles) for lopping off the endemic elms that are constantly growing up and about the home.
Our daughter loves to sew. So I bought her a couple pairs of Kai scissors. Not cheap, but they’re really nice.
My Gerber multi tool has a little scissors on it that is surprisingly robust and sharp. Good for fingernails and string, but it’s not a go-to scissors.
I have many pairs of such items – tree limb loppers, goat hoof shears, utility scissors for the barn, Felco hand pruners (3 different kinds), paper scissors, hair shears, thinning shears from a beauty supply place I use to groom the dogs, expensive German sewing shears kept in a special box in a special drawer, thread snips, and I’m sure I forgotten some. My husband has many more kinds of snips, shears, loppers, metal snips … we have a lot of tools.
Oh, yes, i also have a variety of snips and such for wire.
Oh, and happy 
day @puzzlegal if no one else has mentioned it!
Back to the thread. I personally didn’t include any shears in my multitools (2-3) because they’re normally pretty crappy. I do think we have 1-2 pairs of tin snips though, so I guess I’d add them to the list.
I deliberately left off my wire snips, dikes, bolt cutters etc because they are not true scissors. They have to have blades that bypass each other to be scissors.
Dad was a newspaperman. Science Editor in Philly. He had 2 sets of scissors that were only to be used to cut newsprint. The blades are 6" long. To this day I’ve only cut single sheets of paper with them.
4 or 5 regular scissors sprinkled throughout the apartment. Fairly sharp, pretty cheap.
2 stainless steel cut-down shears from my EMT days.
1 larger disposable plastic-edged cut-down shear.
2 pair tinsnips/ metal shears.
3 small wicked sharp moustache scissors. ( Some in Dopp kit, some at home. )
2 or 3 sets of wire snips.
Since I regard large flat paper cutters as shears, I’ve got 2. One identical to this one, but without the rust. Another about half that size. Newer and much crappier in terms of blade sharpness. Those older ones? The very action of lowering the handle to cut paper seemed to slightly sharpen the blade as it moved down against the steel edge.
2 Kitchen shears used only for cutting up food. Love love love 'em.
