Shun Multi Purpose Kitchen Shears

These are awesome!! I bought these scissors to replace a mediocre pair that came with a premium knife block set. They arrived sharp as heck and have continued to stay sharp over the past 3 months. They cut through wired ribbon without trouble and are great for general kitchen use. The flat tip on the end of each handle is a great makeshift screwdriver and works well to break the vacuum seal on jars. They are comfortable and don’t hurt my small hands. They come apart easily and go through the dishwasher (on the top rack) without any signs of rust or damage. If you are on the fence about these, just get them. You won’t regret it.

For years I kept an old pair of scissors in the kitchen for opening bags, boxes, etc. They were never sharp enough, would choke on thick items, and were a pain to clean. I happened on a tool recommendation for kitchen shears by Cook's Country magazine (now defunct I'm sorry to say). I bought a pair back at the beginning of April '26, and they solved all the afore mentioned problems, plus some I didn't know I had. I got a lot more quality and versatility that I was expecting. Highly recommend.

I bought these for my wife after I ruined her old pair, and they were a clear upgrade in every way. The quality is immediately obvious. They are very sharp, feel great in the hand, and have a solid, well balanced feel that inspires confidence when using them. They also clean easily thanks to the detachable blades. They feel like a buy it for life item. I am very happy with the purchase, and more importantly, my wife is too.

Great kitchen scissors. Have had two pair for 20 years. They were Kershaw brand. Apparently Shun now is the brand name..... Same scissors, bought these for a family member for Xmas. Pricey but worth it. Have had mine successfully sharpened for years. Still the best !

These kitchen shears are so good. I love Shun! These come apart for washing so you can cut raw chicken, take apart, wash, and not worry about cross contamination. They are very sharp!

I've been using one of these for 3 years now . I ihink the best test of a pair of shears is breaking down a chicken, and the Shun gets an A+. Separates the backbone with minimal effort. The notch easily goes through wing and leg joints. The quality of the steel is excellent, I run it through the dishwasher and have not seen a spot of rust ever. There are a couple of gimmicks Shun could drop. There is a twist off bottle opener that can grab a ketchup or bbq sauce cap, but nothing larger than about 1 1/4 inch diameter. And there is an old fashioned lever bottle opener for beer and soda caps while almost every beverage company in the western world uses twist off caps. And those things at the end of the handle that look like screwdrivers? For what? Come on Shun. Look at the calendar. This is 2025. Lose some of the useless frills and knock a few $ off the price.

If one needs good all purpose kitchen shears (and who doesn’t?) these fit the bill nicely. They’re excellent quality, come apart for easy cleaning, AND…they’re actually sharp. Nothing worse than trying to cut something simple and feeling like you’re trying to chew through it with two spoons. They’ll always have a place in my knife bag. Spatchcock a bird? Not a problem. Though I wouldn’t use them on larger turkey bones. But then that’s also outside of the intended use. Cut through the wire that seemingly gets twisted in multiple directions around stuff like celery? No issues. Got a stubborn cap on something like grenadine that’s fused itself to the bottle? Sorted. Standing outside by a grill or smoker and need a “refreshment?” Bottle opener to the rescue. ;-) Are they a bit spendy? Perhaps…but still a heck of a lot less than most of my knives…and they’re kinda one trick ponies in comparison. So for ME, I think the value is there. They’re well made, comfortable to use, and will probably last for years with proper care.

Well made and sharp. Satisfied with the purchase.

Great Scissors for cutting my meats for Stews and Soups. I purchase ordered in England from the Company in the USA and the Scissors arrived with no problems. I chop meats into small pieces into a pot and Hawkins Pressure Cooker them into a great Stew in short time, like 15 minutes. Great for at home, and whilst Camping. No need for a chopping board and knife, just hold the meats and Snip with the Scissors. A great quality Steel. 👍👍👍

Sou fã da marca faz tempo e sempre que vou atualizar meus equipamentos dou uma passada pelos produtos. São extraordinários, realmente levam a qualidade japonesa para outro nível.

Schneidet unfassbar gut. Nicht nur Lebensmittelverpackungen oder Kräuter, sondern auch Materialien, wie dicke Plastikleisten bei einer Sanierung waren kein Problem. Einzig das Material der Griffe macht den Eindruck, dass es bei viel Druck brechen könnte.

Very sharp blades. Precision manufactured shears that operate smoothly and effectively. Comfortable handles.

There's a reason these are top rated. Wickedly sharp, easy to use, clean and sharpen!
