I like these shears. They are very sharp and work well. The only complaint I have it in the product review it states that the shears come apart for easy cleaning, and this is not true. If you go to the Henckels web site it doesn't make this claim. I was looking for shears that came apart, so was somewhat Disappointed.

These shears are solidly built, but a little on the small side. Best for small to medium-sized hands. The actual blade only measures 2 1/2 inches, which is not very long if you want to cut deeply into a piece of poultry. Also, they are made in Italy, not Germany.

I don't mind that these don't come apart easily. These are beautiful and functional. The picture doesn't do them justice. If you are looking for high quality shears these are the ones you want.

This product was amazing in quality! I love the sharpness of shears and the comfort of the grip. It was very easy to use and a very stylish addition to my kitchen. I recommend this product to everyone and anyone who needs a useful tool in their kitchen. that is all.

These shears are the best kitchen scissors I have ever owned in a long life of cooking. They have gotten the stubborn corks out of champagne bottles over the '08-'09 holiday season when nothing else worked and no muscle man around. They are sharp and very beautifully made. Worth the price.

Wow! this scissor cut like a champ!! cut everything as if it were paper. The only downside is that it's a little short, but all in all, for the price, it's worth buying.

Agree with the other reviewer. The shears do NOT come apart easily, you need a screwdriver.
Otherwise, they are incredibly gorgeous, sturdy and efficient.

The only problem with the shears is that it is misleading when they say the shears can be taken apart. While true, it is not an easy disassembly. There are other models out there where the two halves of the shears are easily separated from each other, allowing for easier cleaning. Otherwise the shears are excellent.

i honestly wouldn't know how to disassemble them but that's not what i got them for. i got them because they are beautiful and the quality is amazing. this is a work of art that also happens to work superbly. i would dare say it is actually worth the price.

I've had an endless series of cheap kitchen scissors through the years. When my last pair started tearing instead of cutting, and the tips didn't meet properly, I decided to invest in a really nice pair. I did a lot of research on Amazon and the Internet, trying to avoid paying for a designer name with poor quality.

I decided to buy Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Select Kitchen Shears because they are solid, high-carbon stainless-steel and come apart for cleaning. I didn't want another pair with plastic handles, or any with a cheap screw holding them together. Another deciding point was the lifetime guarantee against defects, and the fact that German-made products I own (cookware and kitchen knives) have held up remarkably well.

These scissors are truly beautiful to see, they're nicely balanced and the handles are very comfortable despite being solid metal. They are razor sharp and cut through chicken breasts as if they were paper. It looks like they require a dime or a screwdriver to take them apart, but I think it's a bonus that they can't pop apart easily.

I'm very please with these shears, and look forward to years of using them in my kitchen. Sometimes it's really worth it to spend a little extra on quality!
