Most versatile scissors, love the take apart feature!

I also have several serrated tomato knifes (red plastic handle). One of them is still in operation after 20 years. It is the best knife I have ever owned. I use it for everything.

This is my second pair of Kitchen Scissors from Messermeister. My last pair I've had since 2005 and they met their demise when I used the scissors to cut open a tube of super glue and I accidentally glued the blades together. (DUH!) I was so happy to find the same scissors on your website, I love them. I use them to cut chicken, open boxes, open beer, cut slimely stuff, cut plants and many other things.
Vicki H.
These are exactly what I was looking for. They are made well and I ordered 2 pair, one for kitchen and one for gardening..
Rita H.
Great product. Highly recommend detachable scissors.
Christina S.
Excellent product, great design
Sarah W.
These are sturdy kitchen shears that are easy to clean. I like that the handles are flexible instead of rigid - the hard plastic handles on my last pair of shears from a different company were what broke, rendering them useless. Hoping these will last longer!
Marlene B.
I own one & purchased one for each of my son-in-laws. One is a fisherman, the other a gardener.
They were both thrilled with the scissors & now my daughters want their own pair! These scissors are such wonderful & useful gifts sure to bring happiness with every use.
Khristin P.
They are fine but I guess I should have paid more attention to the size because they were too small to spatchcock a turkey, it made it very tough! But will still use them for other smaller jobs.
Tim M.
Works as advertised... Great product!

I mainly use these for cutting up chicken and chicken wings. If I get a pack of wings when the drum and flap is still attached I can cut through them easily. Easy to clean and take apart. Recommend.

I bought a set of 3 scissors about 10 years ago. These, the next size and the culinary scissors. My wife uses them for absolutely everything and the ability to take these apart and easily clean them is what I love. They don't become loose after time and they've stayed sharp. These scissors are worth their weight in gold!
