Editorial Review:
Culinary scissors are a must-have for any well-stocked kitchen and this professional-grade set ensures you'll have the right shears for the job! With high-carbon, stainless steel blades and easy-to-hold handles. J.A. Henckels has been manufacturing fine cutlery since 1731. All Henckels kitchen tools are forged and feature ultrasharp blades enhanced using the Friodur ice-hardening process. Set carries the Henckels lifetime warranty.
Known primarily for their well-crafted knives, Henckels also makes scissors and employs the same high-quality standards in their construction. This set includes five different pairs of scissors that cover a variety of household uses: standard 8-1/2-inch bent scissors for cutting paper or fabric, 8-inch kitchen shears for poultry or herbs (this pair also features a screw-cap opener between the handles), a 6-inch straight trimmer for cutting hair or trimming beards, 6-inch flower shears for clipping rose stems or trimming house plants, and a pair of extra-sharp, pointed 4-inch embroidery scissors for sewing. Henckels uses the same high-carbon stainless steel for its scissor blades as for its knife blades to ensure durability and a longer-lasting sharp edge. The blades (except the flower shears) are held together with a screw that provides the perfect amount of tension and is removable so blades can be individually resharpened. Handles on all scissors are made of comfortable, nonslip, black polypropylene to reduce strain on hands. This set is fully guaranteed against defects in material and workmanship. --Cristina Vaamonde

Great price, acceptable product:
Not the kind of quality I would have expected from J. A. Henckels, but they are functional. Great price.
A cut above:
Greta set of shears for every occasion....and a great value....my wife loves them....which means I love them....a great gift for anyone who loves great scissors....
Good basic set:
A nice basic scissor set for the home. Not the same quality as the top brands, but you aren't paying top brand price either. The scissors were all sharp and have done the job around the home just fine so far!
Not bad for the price, but a couple didn't hold their edge well.:
Nice, all purpose set ... perhaps I'm hard on my scissors, as I use them extensively for multiple tasks. They didn't hold their edge as well as I'd like. Arrived in a timely manner, well packed. Recommended if you don't put them through a lot of use.
