Description

Wusthof come-a-part kitchen shears. These Wusthof come-a- part kitchen shears are good for snipping flowers, strings, cloth or herbs. The come-a-part mechanism lets you clean these scissors easily and quickly. It also prevents bacteria or rust from developing between the two halves. Standard features: Wusthof come-a-part kitchen shears length: 8"; precision forged high carbon stainless steel has a bone notch synthetic handle; hand wash; lifetime Wusthof warranty against material and manufacturing defects, with normal use and proper care; Model: 5558-1 240613 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

    • The Wusthof 5558 is the perfect kitchen shears to butterfly a chicken!
Color: Black
These Wusthof come-apart kitchen shears are perfect to butterfly a chicken! These shears are also a useful addition to your home improvement tool kit or as a home gardening tool. PROS: Shears open and close easily for cutting. They are not at all stiff to use! The blades are short (8 ins by 0.5 ins). This ensures good leverage for making precision cuts - whether it's deboning a chicken, cutting up veggies or even outdoors as a home gardening shears! Blades are made with high-carbon stainless steel so they stay sharp longer. One blade is serrated to prevent slippage during cutting and another is smooth to ensure a clean cut. Bone notch at end of kitchen shear blade easily cuts through chicken bones Blades meet together for smooth, precision cutting. When opened to the fullest, the blades come apart for easy cleaning. Rugged synthetic handles for either right or left handed users. These shears have steel-tooth insets in the handles to twist open bottle and jar caps. CONS: If you open the shears too far while cutting, the blades will come apart. However, to open the shears 'this far', you must be trying to cut a watermelon for the blades to come apart while in use! :) These are precision crafted shears proudly made by Wusthof knife making company of Germany. Wusthof is family owned for 7 generations and has been in the knife making business since 1813. If you are looking for a good quality pair of shears at a reasonable price, then these Wusthof Come-Apart Kitchen Shears are just the tool for your kitchen, home improvement tool kit or gardening shed!

    • High quality
Color: Black
I have used Hinckel products forever but this brand is far superior. No rust, perfect size for easy grip and hold, super sharp making crisp clean cuts. I have not had to sharpen once since purchasing unlike other brands. My only complaint is they come apart easily and for some reason I struggle to put back together. ... show more

    • The blister pack's worst enemy, the gardener's friend
Color: Black
These shears solve many of today's packaging headaches, help gardeners and crafters, and may stray from the kitchen. I've ended up with three pair. Ditto to all the positive remarks from other reviewers regarding kitchen use, especially that the shears are comfortable for left-handers and for those with arthritis. The benefits of these shears make them useful for many things. The benefits include: being able to take the blades apart for thorough cleaning and sharpening; short blades that give more cutting force with less hand strength, the blades' close and reliable fit, and large finger holes, so you can use the shears with gloves on. On top of my list is their ability to get packages open, especially blister packs. If you can get a blade point in, you can cut through the top layer, if not, cut around the product through both layers. The plastic and cardboard are no match for these shears. Those plastic tabs and twisted wires that imprison children's toys? Easily snipped. How about the messy task of opening the individually packaged salmon fillet? All manner of other packages, in the kitchen and out, seem to assume you have strong, clean, sharp scissors at hand. I used to use a box-cutter for many opening tasks, but hurt myself far too often. Now I use these scissors. They work and are safer. I have a kitchen garden and am frequently running out to snip herbs for cooking. For a while I tried to keep a pair of clippers nearby, but finally realized that these kitchen shears, hanging right there on the hook, did the job just fine, plus cut a handful of chives and trimmed the thyme effectively, which the clippers didn't. I start seedlings early in little peat pots that work well, but don't really transplant into the garden as effectively as advertised, so I use these scissors to cut the pots off at transplant time without injuring the little plants. In the garden itself, I use these scissors to cut twine, open seed packets and the like, plus they can twist off the hose couplings, open liquid gardening product containers, cut small stakes to the right height, extract new items from packaging, even snip chicken wire and all while I'm wearing gloves. And if that isn't enough, they don't rust if left out in the rain. When doing craft projects, these scissors cut leather, as well as other awkward and difficult items much easier than standard scissors. They stand up to a lot of heavy use and have definitely made my life easier. If the blades get dull or nicked, I run them over my diamond steel a few times and all is well again. ... show more

    • Great product with great price
Color: Black
I have a pair of J.A. Henckels Twinshear Kitchen Shears that I use for everything, but the blades cannot be taken apart and the joint is hard to clean. So when I need another pair of shears for cutting up baby/toddler food, I decided to get another pair reserved specially for cooked food. This pair is really worth every single penny. The blades are very sharp, and the handling is great. One blade is serrated on the top, so food does not slip as easily. It fits perfectly in my hands (my hand is on the large side for females, but definitely smaller than an average male's). The best part is that it comes apart for cleaning very, very easily. I only need to open the blades all the way to 90 degrees and pull them apart. There is no knob or any other parts other than the blades, so there is no loose part to lose. The precise machining makes the shears feel sturdy when cutting - the blades do not shift around in other directions at all, unlike many other come-apart models - but they come apart (and go back together) in a snap. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a new pair of shears. I am even thinking of replacing my other pair, only if I can find a way to tell the two apart... ... show more
