Editorial Review:
Chicago Cutlery, Insignia2, Kitchen Scissors, High Carbon Forged Stainless Steel Full Tang Blade, Black Onyx Polymer Handles, Dishwasher Safe, Lifetime Warranty.
The Insignia collection from Chicago Cutlery includes this pair of heavy-duty kitchen scissors. Like the knives in the collection, the scissors feature high-carbon stainless-steel blades that have been honed with the company's exclusive Taper Grind technology for optimum sharpness. Whether cutting through chicken wings or snipping articles out of the paper, the scissors will retain their sharpness and can be resharpened when necessary.
Symmetrical handles mean this pair of scissors can be used by left- or right-handed users, and the nonporous polymer coating adds comfort. Steel extensions on the end of the scissor handles function as a bottle opener and flathead screwdriver, while steel ridges between the two sides of the handles can be used to grip recalcitrant jar or bottle lids, or even to crack nuts in the shell. Dishwasher-safe, this true multipurpose tool makes a great gift. --Ann Bieri

For scissors skip these....there are better:
I've had these scissors for about a year now and use them at least once a week. On the upside they do come apart for cleaning, which is great if you use them for things like cutting up a chicken before frying. The blade is reasonably sharp and will cut cleanly through everything from paper to tough plastic packaging. The bottle opener is handy and works well too. But on the downside the handle is not very ergonomic and will put strain on your thumb when bearing down on it. So for my kitchen this pair does... more info
Great All-Purpose Kitchen Shears:
I use kitchen shears in the kitchen for countless uses and my old ones broke so I was in the market for a new set. I read the reviews for this pair and decided to give them a try. When they arrived, I was pleasantly surprised at how nice and heavy these kitchen shears were. They fit nicely in my hand and do not pinch my hand upon closing. The shears are equipped with a gripper section for opening jars, the end is designed to be a screwdriver on one side and a bottle opener on the other. I have to say... more info
