Product Description: Don't let the beautiful appearance fool you. Powerful and extremely sharp, these multipurpose kitchen shears are designed for effortless cutting, essentially for poultry but also for vegetables, meat and fish. Forged from surgical stainless steel, the handcrafted contemporary design includes full metal construction. Each curved blade is a sleek extension of a brushed steel handle. The lower blade features grip-enhancing serrations and a powerful, bone-cracking notch, while the cutting blade is finished with an extremely sharp, precision cutting edge. Handy latch keeps shears closed for safe storage. Comes apart for easy cleaning.
Amazon.com Review: These ultrasharp shears are designed especially for cutting quickly and safely through poultry. Fully forged from an ultrahigh-carbon stainless metal alloy, the shears feature molded-on black molten polymer handles for a nonslip grip. Made from a unique alloy called Trizor steel, these shears have a higher carbon content than other kitchen knives and shears, giving them a higher tensile strength, which makes them stronger and more resilient. The ultrasharp blades come out of the box 2 to 3 times sharper than other scissors, and the edges last up to 10 times longer than those of other brands. Even so, the shears can be sharpened with conventional sharpeners. Molded-on handles are safe in the dishwasher, but hand washing is recommended to keep steel blades scratch free. --Doree Armstrong

These shears are a very close copy to the $110 Wusthoff 5512. I felt a little guilty for buying a product based on stolen ideas but, hey, it saved me 80 bucks! I ended up with practically the same as the German made Wusthoffs I was lusting for.

I have seen a lot of junk made in China but when American supervision and quality control are in place it can be world class. This is obviously the case ... Read More
Rating: - Don't buy it
These scissors are very mediocre. I used them once. They are heavy and difficult to use, especially for women whose hands are not as strong. I got pretty tired half-way through cutting a cornish hen. They cut okay, but it was a lot of work.
I took them apart and washed them, and then the springs won't let me put them back together. The scissors won't close, so I can't put it back in the original box to store.
I'm currently looking for a new pair of poultry scissors...
