Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of W?sthof Come-Apart Kitchen Shears
Customer Review: Durable and easily cleaned- great heavy duty shears
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased these when my last set of poultry shears broke at the joint. These had a decently high rating and were available for the 4-for-3 deal so I grabbed a pair.
So far they've been great. The take-apart design makes them easier to clean and less likely to break as they have a way of failing safely built into them. They are also significantly sharper than any of the previous kitchen shears I've owned, which has included some much more expensive products.
These seem a little pricey at first, but they're high quality, easily cleaned, and tougher than the average scissors. If they're on sale and you need another item to add to get the 4-3 promotion they're definately worth it. They're still just shears though, so if your current ones work fine then it might be best to wait till those wear out to replace them. After all, it doesn't make sense to buy something simply because it lasts longer when what you have still works fine does it?
Description of W?sthof Come-Apart Kitchen Shears
Unique Come-A-Part Design / Professional Forging / Classic StyleThese powerful 8-inch kitchen shears cut food, flowers, paper, cardboard, even carpet. They're balanced in the hand and work equally well for right-handers and left-handers. Blades formed from high-carbon stainless steel curve inward so they meet in only one place at any given position and cutting action is smooth and exact. One blade's serrations prevent slippage. A plastic cap on the screw securing the blades can be lifted so the shears can be taken apart for resharpening. Steel-tooth insets in the rugged synthetic handles twist open bottle and jar caps. The shears are dishwasher-safe, but hand washing better protects the blade edges. --Fred Brack
