Dritz Deluxe Naadritser

The little blade tip is perfect for getting right under those stubborn threads without snagging the fabric around buttonholes, and the grip keeps it from slipping even when my hands are tired. It's made ripping out a bad seam almost satisfying instead of a chore.

I was nervous about ruining my fabric, but this seam ripper's sharp, slender tip made taking out a misplaced zipper a breeze. The curved handle gives you great control, and the little ball on the end protects the fabric from accidental snags.

The tip is sharp enough to slide under stitches without snagging the fabric, and the cap protects it when not in use. I used it to rip out a long seam on a dress, and it worked smoothly without breaking a single thread.
