I’ve decided to rename the ‘Essentials’ set (not to be confused with the Homemaker, Kitchenette or Studio set) the Potentially Real Cook Starter set. 
Last year they had a sewing and embroidery set. Now, I don’t know how much the original sold for. But, the discontinued model sold on eBay it went for over $300.
Yet, I see that Cutco Australia has it. For $247 US for the two. Or $96 USD for the sewing scissors (have I screamed ‘darn the eternally weakening dollar’ this week?). It’s insanity for me to want these. But, look at the pretty blue handle! And the adorable block it comes in!
Further research tells me that Cutco also made bent handled shears! They were $59 retail, but sold for over $100 on eBay late last year.
Yes, I know there are Kais and Ginghers easily available to me. And, I have perfectly good scissors and am not REALLY going to track these down. But, I sure do like the exotic and unattainable.
Did you ever find the Bent Sewing Scissors from Cutco. I wish they would make them again. My sisters have them and they are the best.
