Very Awkward grip
May 8, 2012
I am a fan of reverse spring scissors as I use them for crafting religiously. That being said, I disliked the grip on these very much. The spring isn't tense enough to allow for a firm grip. Returning for another style.
Cons: awkward

Cuts cleanly and cleans easily
March 1, 2011
After struggling with old-fashioned poultry shears and giving up, I bought these last year and have been extremely pleased. They cut easily and cleanly through bones and joints as well as soft skin and flesh. Love the way they come apart and clean in the dishwasher. Snaps closed for storage. Comfortable in the hand, too.

Easy to use
February 19, 2011
These poultry shears are wonderful! They are light but very strong. I was able to cut through a whole chicken with ease. They come apart for easy cleaning. Would definitely purchase again.

Great for cutting poultry bones, but not the skin
February 4, 2011
These are my first poultry shears. They cut through the bones and joints of a chicken very easily. Just don't try cutting through the loose skin...it's virtually impossible!
The soft grip handles feel very comfortable and really do help give you good control when cutting. I try to make sure to handle the chicken only with my free hand to prevent the handles from getting slippery.
The blades separate for cleaning (something I'm glad about.) I have not had any problem with them separating during cutting (though I've only cut up two chickens so far.)
The shears have a small closing clip at the end of the handles to keep them closed during storage...a nice feature.

Worked great until the spring broke
February 23, 2010
Received these shears as a gift about 16 months ago and have used them a lot - they are easy to use, powerful, and sharp. But last weekend the leaf spring (that holds the handles apart and gives the shears their power) snapped off at the handle, rendering them basically useless as a poultry tool.
While they were working, though, they did work great and were a major improvement over previous shears I've used.

Not so great :(
December 21, 2009
I have used these shears several times. They are hard to handle. They don't have a very wide spread, so while cutting poultry, you struggle. They have also come apart while I was using them. I would NOT recommend.

Not Just For Chcken!
July 13, 2009
These shears are wonderful for chicken, but don't forget all the ways they can make your life easier. The curved blade makes cutting pizza, bread crusts, pita bread & cheese sandwichs a breeze. Use for trimming artichokes, celery, scallions, etc. I use them every day.

Great shears
February 5, 2009
A very good buy. And makes cutting up a chicken sooooo much easier! To be honest, I don't know why I spent so much time doing it the old fashioned way, when these shears make it a snap!

Absolutely Wonderful

These Kitchen Shears made my job so much easier. They cut the chicken so precisely and safely. These should be a part of every cook's kitchen. I am buying another pair for my dear friend Rose!!
