Customer Review: Beyond Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had mine for about a year, ever since I bought the big 18-piece set. I loved having nice, sturdy shears that I could wash easily (Coming apart in the center keeps rust from forming) and I use the bottle opener and flathead screwdriver ends all the time because I can never find those things in my messy kitchen. I had to cut the back out of a whole duck (Decently large at 6 pounds) so my dog could eat it before I roasted it tomorrow. The bird was still partially frozen, so I assumed I'd have to continue cutting tomorrow. The thick, 1/2"+ leg bone wasn't even a match for these shears! It was still frozen, and I couldn't have broken it with anything else. Every time I butcher through a bird with these, it's like cutting construction paper. I've used quite a few good shears in my life, including the kitchenaid that my family's so fond of, but they don't even compare to these. They're extremely sturdy!
I've heard that they rust/the handle breaks apart, and that's only if you dishwash them. As a rule, good knives should not be put through the dishwasher, as it'll kill them pretty quick. These are pretty much like good knives, in the way they're made, since the dishwasher isn't the foremost concern above quality. I've seen knives that should've lasted 50 years be torn apart in 6 months by being thrown in a drawer and dishwashed.

Chicago Cutlery Insignia Kitchen Scissors, Black includes 1-Each kitchen scissors, black.Chicago Cutlery Insignia collection has fully tapered edges providing extreme sharpness for improved cutting performance. The high-carbon stainless steel blade resists stains and provides long lasting beauty and easy maintenance. Polymer handles are durable and non-porous.

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
