## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why are these twice as much from fiber supply stores???**
A: Fiber supply stores are a Niche market, so they have to charge more to make money. These are the same Miller kevlar shears that they sell. They are not a knock off or inferior product.

**Q: Do these come with a belt pouch?**
A: At one time they came with a leather pouch... But more recent orders revealed that they came only with the scissors and nothing else. Still great kevlar and fiber scissors.

**Q: Do these come in a left handed model?**
A: Hi, we do not have a left  handed model.

**Q: Do these come with a belt pouch?**
A: No. It is very hard to find these shears as a combo with the pouch. I usually order them separate.
