Wusthof 5558-1 Come-Apart Kitchen Shears

J'avais acheté une paire de ciseaux qu'il fallait revisser tous les jours. Maintenant plus cette corvée, coupant top, et se démonte d'un geste pour le nettoyer. Top achat et marque de qualité!

We LOVE it! Especially for cutting meat and bacon and opening wet packages. It holds well but is easy to disassemble for washing and drying. Which is great because we have lost many kitchen shears to rust thanks to humidity and water accumulating in the joints

Wir kaufen die Schere jetzt zum zweiten Mal, weil sie einfach genial ist, und bei uns niemand mehr freiwillig mit der alten einfachen schneidet. Die Schere ist scharf, liegt gut in der Hand- aber das tun viele. Was diese so besonders macht, ist der super einfache Reinigungsmechanismus: auseinander drehen, spülen, trocknen, schnell wieder zusammenbauen. Das geht fix und ist sehr hygienisch. So nutzen wir diese Schere auch für Geflügel! Einfach mit der Schere zerteilen, hinterher alles spülen, ohne dass Siff oder Keime (mehr oder weniger unsichtbar) in der Schere bleiben. Absolut top für jede Küche!

These are great kitchen shears. I've had them for 5 years now and they are still going strong and cut as good as the day I bought them. I use these for just about everything from cutting whole chickens, cutting fresh herbs off the plant, cutting string, cutting open plastic deli meat packages and I'm a bit ashamed to admit, I've even used them as a make shift slotted and philips head screwdriver on a few occasions. The bottle opener works well but I have a dedicated bottle opener that I find easier to use. Cleaning wise, these are super easy. They come apart when you form a 90 degree angle with the blades and these just come apart. It makes washing them super simple and unlike scissors that do not come apart, I know that I am cleaning in between the blades, which is so important especially after cutting chicken and then switching to vegetables. Pros: - Comfortable to hold - Cuts just about everything and maintains its sharpness - Easy to clean Cons: - I guess they are more expensive than other brands

The plastic handles are nice to hold. The metal blades feel sturdy but I can’t really comment on the metal’s hardness yet. But the scissors are very sharp out of the box. Then it is the all important joint that allows the blades to come apart, it is great! When locked in, the joint doesn’t feel loose yet gives a smooth rotation which allows for easy scissoring. The joint is also very intuitive to separate and reassemble the blades. The blades themselves have just the right amount of bend to touch tight, which gives a good shear but doesn’t create too much resistance. For the price, I feel I have a quality product made with precision (all about the joint). When the time comes I can imagine it is much easier to sharpen this pair of scissors.
