I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

I got a somewhat fancy pair of origami scissors form a little Japanese market near me. The wrapping paper glide is amazing. I’ve never had so many near perfect edges before this pair of scissors.

Aren’t scissors… Against the rules of origami or whatever?

You’ll have to take that up with the origami council. I don’t actually do any paper crafts.

My best guess is that I misremembered Kirigami as origami since Kirigami was not in my vocabulary.
