| This is the best tool for dismantling a whole chicken. Safer than a knife, and you can take it apart (easily!) and put it in the dishwasher to disinfect. And then reassemble it easily (in 1 second!). I use it also for trimming fat off of pork, lamb, beef, etc., and it's invaluable for removing extra fins, etc., from fish. |

| As noted before, this was rated the best by Cook's Illustrated, so I purchased it. It is an excellent shear, cutting through poultry bones, and anything else that I've used it for, quickly and smoothly. It also comes apart easily for cleaning. I can highly recommend it. |

| I just wanted to be sure that potential purchasers are aware that the hallowed experts at COOK'S rate this item as the very best take-apart shears available: in the Nov/Dec 2006 issue, they say it's "a cut above the rest." I am not affiliated with the magazine...just a loyal reader! |
best Kitchen shears ever!

| I got these shears because it is a reputable brand and because i can take them apart to wash them in the dishwasher. Although I own mostly all Wuhstoff products, I had to go with the Messermeister shears over the wuhstoff due to the lenght and width of the scissors. They seemed to be more versatile. Not only was I impressed by the fact that they do not stain (like many of my other stainless steel sheers), but i was more impressed with how well they work for the many kitchen tasks I use them for. They are very sharp and are low maintenance. I have used them for cutting flower stems to cutting chicken bones. They work excellent and I still have not had to sharpen them after these last couple of years of regular use. |

| This is the one recommended recently on TV's America's Test Kitchen, and they're the best I've ever had. They come apart for easy cleaning, and are very ergonomically-friendly when you're cutting up whole chicken etc. Thr built-in extras - bottle opener, screw-driver etc - are nice add-ons, but the real value is in the performance of the scissors for tough kitchen work. A+ |
