Kitchen scissors (!)

Extremely dull, I know - but my kitchen scissors are near the end of their life and I want a couple of pairs of new ones! I use scissors for lots of things when cooking.
Any recommendations please? Amazon is too overwhelming...

Have you tried sharpening them with aluminium foil?

The ikea blue scissors are more than adequate. Sharp and sturdy.
I have a new pair and another that’s three years old. I can’t tell the difference.

We were given some similar to these these as a wedding present 28 years ago: Scissors

They are still going strong and have never needed sharpening.

Thank you! I didn't think of IKEA - trouble is, it's miles away...for now I've ordered the ones the last poster linked to - they get very good reviews!
