Hefty, solid, comfortable

"I bought three different sets of Messermeister shears all at once, because I finally hit the end of my rope with the collected assortment of awful, constantly-dull, useless shears in my kitchen drawer. While each of my new shears has a different weight and function, I'm extremely pleased with them all. Very nice heft and balance to them, making them just FEEL good to hold and use. They cut smoothly, whether it's thick packing tape or vacu-seal plastic on food. Haven't had the need to spatchcock a turkey yet, but I'm optimistic these can handle it. . . Really happy with my purchase and I'm looking forward to a long lifespan from these."

All of our kitchen shears have black handles

"These are great and useful everyday kitchen shears for cutting string and twine to opening an Amazon package to opening a bottle of soda pop to unscrewing a stubborn bottle cap to cutting out the back out of a whole chicken. They come apart easily for cleaning and are easily reassembled. And, when the time comes for touchup sharpening it will be a breeze due to their design."
