OXO Good Grips Kitchen & Herb Scissors, Silver/Black

I had no idea that OXO made kitchen equipment - I naively thought they just made stock cubes and awful TV ads in the 80s! It seems I've been missing a trick here with their equipment though... I was becoming more and more frustrated with the pair of scissors I was using in the kitchen. Probably the item I cut the most is chicken breasts or mini fillets and more recently I was finding that a bit of a struggle. Rather than one simple snip to cut through it was requiring more and more, especially to cut the sinew part on some of the breasts. I decided to look for some new scissors and quickly came across these OXO Good Grips Kitchen Herb Scissors. Lots of positive reviews so that's always a good start. When they arrived I was impressed at how they looked and felt, but that was nowhere near as satisfying as the sharp snipping noise they make. You can definitely feel the blades making good contact and they felt sharp. I decided to cut some chicken up, because that is pretty much what I bought them for, and they sheared through it like a knife through butter. Quick and easy and a satisfying noise during each snip. The scissors come apart easy so you can clean them which is a novel idea. The handles are quite large and perfect for my hands. My girlfriends hands are much smaller and she can use them OK but they don't open as wide for her, however she was still able to cut stuff so she's happy with them too. There isn't much to go wrong with these but I'll be interested to see how long they last. The next time I start struggling to cut chicken it will be a pretty good indicator that the scissors are blunt! I've not used the herb stripper (yet) so can't really comment on that part. It certainly wasn't a consideration for me when purchasing these scissors though. Pros: - Decent quality. - Sharp (with a satisfying snipping noise). - Come apart easily for cleaning. Neutral: - The handles are quite large, perfect for my hands but small hands may struggle to open them very far. Cons: - Perhaps £12 is a little expensive for a pair of scissors but I use them pretty much every day.

The best kitchen scissors. Recommended by a friend and they have lived up to expectations. I didn’t think I could ever be this enthusiastic about kitchen scissors! They are a good size and very sharp - particularly helpful for raw meat. No more struggling with those old Ikea kitchen scissors! The star feature for me is the fact they come apart in 2 pieces, which allows for effective cleaning. Definitely worth the money. It saves a lot of time not having to use mediocre scissors or knives and a cutting board for appropriate items.

We’ve had these 4 years now, they are frequently cleaned in the dishwasher and are in my opinion the best scissors I’ve ever had. They’re still sharp and haven’t corroded, neither has the plastic distorted in the dishwasher as other owners have reported. I’m getting another pair each for our grown up children - just hope they’ll perform as well for them as they have for us!

I got them because other reviews said they had large handles; this is not particularly true and I am still on the lookout for a pair that fit my hands. Apart from therefore being a bit uncomfortable they're good.

These OXO Good Grips scissors are an absolute kitchen MVP. I bought them for snipping herbs, but now I find myself reaching for them for everything. Need to open a stubborn food packet? Done. Cut up bacon? Easy. Snip some chives with precision like a culinary ninja? Oh yeah. The stainless steel blades are super sharp, and the micro-serrated edge grips onto herbs and veggies like they owe it money. Plus, the soft, non-slip grip is comfortable enough to use even when your hands are wet or covered in olive oil (don’t judge me). They come apart for easy cleaning—so no gross gunk hiding in the hinge like my old scissors. Dishwasher safe too, but I usually hand wash to keep them in peak condition. Honestly, these scissors are so good I’m surprised Gordon Ramsay doesn’t have them tattooed on his arm. Buy them—you’ll wonder how you ever cooked without them.

Useful for cutting meat. The blades separate for washing which is really good. Very good quality. Dishwasher proof.

Very sharp! love the way they come apart for easy cleaning essential for using with food

Used for 5 + years. Strong, good grip and balance , easily washed as in two parts. Easily sharpened. Not cheap but good value.

I bought two sets of these for the kitchen and they’ve been the go-to scissors on the house for the past year or so. They’ve maintained their cut very well and having them easily disassemble and throw into the dishwasher is a bonus.

Les ciseaux de cuisine OXO sont vraiment bien ! Ils sont pratiques et souvent conçus pour être confortables à utiliser. J'apprécient leur polyvalence, que ce soit pour couper des herbes, ouvrir des emballages ou même pour des tâches plus spécifiques en cuisine.

Muito Ulti!

Ok it's been a while since I wrote a review, but these are the best kitchen scissors ever. The tiny serrations are barely noticeable but they absolutely cut through everything. Like all OXO good grips products, the grip is freaking awesome, it's soft and textured and is even to hold even if your hands are slippery. The herb stripper is one of the coolest ideas ever and it makes stripping Rosemary so easy, I'm not sure about cilantro yet but I plan to try that soon, either way they blow the Farberware scissors from my old knife block they're replacing out of the water (which admittedly isn't hard to do). Highly recommend. I have a growing collection of OXO Good Grips stuff and I've been really happy with all of it so far. Their Salt and Pepper grinders are also super top notch. For 20 bucks, I don't think you can do any better, I checked out some of the larger brand's models and they seem less comfortable and no more durable for twice the money. I also like that the blades come apart, it makes them really easy to clean, I imagine easy to sharpen too, but with the serrations I doubt sharpening will be necessary any time soon (if ever). I'll be recommending these for a loooong time to come.

握り具合がとても良く刃の掛りもとても良いです。魚の開きや魚のジャーキーや鶏ささみジャーキーを切るのに使用しています。切る音が心地良く手入れもし易いので利用頻度は高く満足しています。
