Rating : - Great poultry shears!
I have one word to describe these poultry shears. Greatness! Ok, I have more than one word for these shears, so here goes. I like the stainless steel spring that flexes the blades back open after each cut. I like the no slip handle with the enclosed finger guard. This is nice when cutting slick chicken. Now to the most important part--the blades. I telling you these son-of-guns are sharp! The bottom blade has grooves on the side that hold smaller bones in place while you are cutting them. For thicker bones it has a notch that holds the bone close to the handle for greater leverage. We like to get rotisserie chickens from Wal-Mart. I can have one these cut in half in about 30 seconds. It goes through breast bone cartilage like a breeze and using the bone notch, it cuts through the back bones like a, well, like another breeze. After cutting up your chicken or turkey, you simply seperate the blades for thorough cleaning (an ingenious system-no screwdriver or pliers needed). I don't put mine in the dishwasher because I think it dulls the blades. I used these on a large turkey breast last Thanksgiving to remove the ribs and other bones. Boy did it make the job a lot easier! I've not used any of the other more expensive poultry shears but I can't be more pleased than I am with these. I would agree with the name of these--PROFESSIONAL Poultry Shears.
