5 out of 5 stars Great pair of all purpose shears   July 17, 2008
Stephen G. Horlick (Gillette, WY)
Tested and reviewed number one on Americas test kitchen.
I ordered a pair immediately and haven't looked back.



5 out of 5 stars great shears   July 10, 2008
Richard K. Gray
The Germans do it again. These are the best shears I have ever used. They are sharp enough to cut meat and envelopes.


5 out of 5 stars A must-have kitchen tool   June 30, 2008

If you don't have kitchen shears or you have a pair that won't even cut through chicken bones, don't even hesitate to order these now. You will find yourself using these every day, from cutting up delicate herbs to spatchcocking a chicken for the grill. I love the thin blades because they can fit into some tight spaces, unlike those fat all-purpose scissors that are useless in the kitchen.


5 out of 5 stars Do it all Shears   May 31, 2008
V. Thomas (Baltimore, MD)
This is one great pair of shears to use in the kitchen, especially for cutting chicken. They are super sharp right out of the package and also very comfortable to use. Cook's Illustrated were right on about these. They can also be used to open jars, bottle caps and cutting and trimming meats. Because they take apart so easily there is no worry about getting them clean enough. Great job Messermeister and well worth the money. Thanks for making such a great quality produt that should last for years. If you want a great pair of sharp shears to use in the kitchen get these, you won't be disappointed.


5 out of 5 stars Finally! I can butterfly a chicken!   January 4, 2008

This baby cuts through chicken backbones like buttah! Other shears may do the same, but not without a struggle. By far, though, the best part of this item is that it comes apart easily for thorough cleaning. No chance of bad chicken vibes hanging around on this pair of shears. Easy to disassemble and reassemble.
