5.0 out of 5 stars Handiest Little Scissors You Can Find, September 14, 2007

This review is from: Joyce Chen 6-1/4-Inch Unlimited Scissors, Blue (Kitchen)

I bought my first pair of these little scissors about 20 years ago and still use them today. They are practically indestructible, however I did manage to melt a spot on the handle when I accidentally laid them on a hot burner. Nevertheless, they still work perfectly and are still sharp after 20 years. I finally broke down and ordered a second pair. If they weren't quite as expensive, I would have a pair in every room. They are just so handy, and even though they are small, they will cut practically anything. They are also very comfortable to use as the handles are large enough for just about any hands.

I actually don't think I could cook without a pair of these in the kitchen. They are the best thing I've found for snipping a few fresh herbs, and can go right to the garden to cut fresh flowers for the dinner table. I have also used them to cut through chicken bones and then tossed them into the dishwasher for sanitizing. If I were to make a list of my favorite kitchen items, these would be right up there with my microplane grater and extra long cooking tweezers that also make my life so much simpler. Bottom line is buy some, you'll love them!

These are the second pair of Joyce Chen scissors that I've purchased. The first on is still going strong, but they are now used for the workshop. These scissors stay sharp and strong, and are indispensable in the kitchen. My wife nagged me to quit using her old pair in my workshop, so I stole them and bought her these new ones. That'll teach her...

I used these to cut lobster tails and now I don't know how I ever managed without them.

LOVE THEM!
