Shear perfection.
We see your regular ol’ kitchen scissors, and we raise you these ingenious do-everything shears. They can peel and pare vegetables; crack nuts; open jars, cans, and bottles; and even scale fish. Plus, the stainless steel blades come apart for easy cleaning and storage. Oh, and they can cut through all kinds of foods and packaging, too (but you probably already knew that!).

Useful
While useful, these scissors come apart way too easily and are a little bit difficult to put back together.
Extremely useful
Super easy to take apart and clean. Really useful to have around the kitchen if you don’t already have a pair. I love using them to make chopped scallions for ramen.
Great Scissors
These kitchen shears cut very well and are so easy to clean. A great addition to my kitchen prep! I use them every day.
