Editorial Review: Product Description: Unique Come-A-Part Design / Professional Forging / Classic Style Amazon.com Review: These powerful 8-inch kitchen shears cut food, flowers, paper, cardboard, even carpet. They're balanced in the hand and work equally well for right-handers and left-handers. Blades formed from high-carbon stainless steel curve inward so they meet in only one place at any given position and cutting action is smooth and exact. One blade's serrations prevent slippage. A plastic cap on the screw securing the blades can be lifted so the shears can be taken apart for resharpening. Steel-tooth insets in the rugged synthetic handles twist open bottle and jar caps. The shears are dishwasher-safe, but hand washing better protects the blade edges. --Fred Brack Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Unhappy with same feature others love.I read a lot of reviews before I purchased these shears. The thing that was mentioned over and over again was how easy they came apart for cleaning. What they didn't say is the the shear come apart constantly when you're using them. For example: I was cutting an uncooked chicken apart and the shears opened (fell apart) 7 times. It was very aggravating. The plus size of the shears is that they ARE very sharp and should be easy to keep sharpened. I've opted to buy a different brand and style. Rating: - Great ShearsThese are the best shears I have ever used. They cut through pretty much everything and stay sharp long. Great feature is the separating of the two parts for cleaning. Rating: - Durable and easily cleaned- great heavy duty shearsI recently purchased these when my last set of poultry shears broke at the joint. These had a decently high rating and were available for the 4-for-3 deal so I grabbed a pair. So far they've been great. The take-apart design makes them easier to clean and less likely to break as they have a way of failing safely built into them. They are also significantly sharper than any of the previous kitchen shears I've owned, which has included some much more expensive products.

It cuts through skin and fat easily. Rating: - PerfectI can take apart a cornish hen with this without taking out my knife. I love how easy they are to clean. As with everything Wusthof its very high quality, I own several of their knives as well. This is a great addition to my kitchen. The bottle opener is also great for opening those stubborn soda bottles. |
