Scissor Tails?

I stopped by the lfs I frequent to pick up some ial yesterday. Of course I had to look at the selection of Bettas!. I noticed some that looked like VT/Dbl.Tails and when I asked the owner if thats what they were. He said "they are Scissor Tails." Anyone familiar with this label?

Also, is there a difference between V/T's and Long Tails other than the spelling?

Never head of scissor tail. It was probably a DT (double tail) x VT cross. Did they look like this

It seems that the points of the split in the caudal fin are slightly longer and pointed. Maybe just a difference in the age!

Since there a cross the finnage can vary alot. I would say its a VTDT
