HENCKELS Take-Apart Kitchen Shears

I've bought cheaper shears and they were good until the plastic molding broke apart. I decided to pay a little more and hopefully find a pair that would last a little longer. I've only had this pair for a couple of weeks, but my first impressions are that this is a good set of shears. They are sharp and easy to take apart and clean. The handle is most important as I've got other shears, but the handle is too small, therefore I avoid using them. The handle on this set will fit an average to large male hand. I'll probably buy another set because shears have a habit of growing legs and walking off around this abode.

For clarity: The shears are 8" long. The product that is 10.25" is the shears in the plastic mold packaging. They are the same length as my 8" Wüsthof shears. That said, these are a great set of shears. Sharp, easy, agile. Do not be afraid to order a pair or two. They are a great way to avoid getting a cutting board dirty. Slices chicken ribs with ease, a great tool for deboning, and does all sorts of scissor things as well, like opening pan sausage tubes, cutting twine, snipping herbs, et al. My shears see more action than my knives in the kitchen, the star of the cutting block. The serrated edge is subtle but perfectly placed on the edge for a positive grip. Nothing to fuss at on the Henckels shears, a prime tool.

Great quality and easy to clean. Replaced our shears that broke.

GREAT FOR THE KITCHEN!! I have three pair and these are easy to handle and cut everything (meat) nicely. The fact that they are take-apart and go in the dishwasher is perfect!

I purchased these to replace the dull scissors from my Henckels knife block. I expected similar quality from the brand I've come to trust. The scissors are sharp, feel durable, easy to take apart and clean, and have a nice weight to them. My only complaint are the handle or finger holes feel thin, made of cheap plastic with a noticeable seam. We will have to see how long they last.

Super sharp and handy

Great kitchen shears that are the perfect size, cut well, and are comfortable to use. And they’re the classic Henkels quality and durability.

These scissors are very sharp and heavy duty

Cuts very well

Excellent product.

I own way to many kitchen shears (scissors). I have the Shun 7300, the KAI version of those, the Victorinox take apart, the LivingGo, and others. For normal day to day kitchen use, I find these the most comfortable jack-of-all-traits pair that I pick up first. So what I like: - very easy to clean with take apart and put back together - hold for a small hand (for whole family to use) all the way to large hand (which I can use comfortably) - simple profile with no extra bottle openers or lid openers that snag on things (or things you might be even cutting) - sharp and hold their edge - sturdy - once aging easy to take apart/reassemble where you get to clean every single section from the raw chicken you might cut, with no rusting Where these are lacking: - cutting the larger chicken bones. ... So good for butterflying a chicken, but not good for cutting through leg or thigh bones.

As title reads - shears has remained sharp throughout heavy use and is super easy to clean. Two things to point out 1) I've not really used it for heavy duty tasks (cutting through chicken carcasses) 2) Edges are serrated so sharpening is out of the question Despite the above 2 points this is a great product based on the design (detachable blades) and the quality of the make.

Good pair of scissors. Nothing much to shout about, but 3 months in and it still is sharp and cuts well on everything I have used it on. Plastic handle is non-obstructive.
