I love these 9″ kitchen scissors so much that I have 4 pairs and keep them all over the kitchen – they’re ready whenever I need them. Kitchen shears are one of those underrated kitchen tools that come in handy for all sorts of tasks. From snipping herbs to opening pesky packaging, they’re versatile little lifesavers.
You can use them to easily trim excess fat off meat, spatchcock poultry for faster cooking, or even cut through bones when you’re dealing with a whole chicken or turkey. They’re great for snipping through tough lobster or crab shells too.
But it’s not just about the savory stuff – kitchen shears are perfect for cutting up dried fruits for baking, snipping bacon into bite-sized bits, or even giving pizza slices a quick trim. And don’t forget, they’re also fantastic for opening those stubborn plastic packaging that seems to defy every other tool in the drawer. So, next time you’re in the kitchen, don’t underestimate the power of a good pair of kitchen shears!
In addition to being very heavy-duty and sharp, they also have a bottle-opener, a fish-scaler, a bone/nut crusher, and ergonomic handles. I run them through the dishwasher all the time and they’re still as sharp and true as ever. Plus, if they get really dirty, you can take them apart for cleaning.
They’re currently on sale at Amazon for $11, so it could be the perfect time to get more than one pair without breaking the bank. You can get them with silver, gold, or rose gold handles in addition to the red above. Highly recommended!
