Disappointing
on September 13, 2026
Posted by: KJ
from Northern California
Purchased to process game birds. I have only tried on dove and they will not cut the skin. The skin of a dove is too much for these! After having many, many Henckels knives, I expected much more.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Makes "Carving Up" Chicken a Breeze!
on June 19, 2025
Posted by: FoodieMomof3
These shears make it so unbelievably easy to "carve up" my roast chicken and I no longer have to worry about dulling my knives when I inevitably try to quarter in the wrong place. Can't wait to use these to spatchcock a chicken for the grill this summer!
My only issue with these shears is that sometimes the latch catches when they're in use and you need to re-open it.

Great Shears
on February 8, 2024
Posted by: BeeJayGee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excited to have purchased these shears. I love how sturdy they are and that they have a safety latch to prevent the blades from opening when stored away. Too bad the blades don’t come apart (thus the 4 stars); this would make washing and drying much better. Other than that, very happy with this purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great design and quality!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These poultry shears were a bit of a splurge, but totally worth it! Very happy with the quality and ergonomic design. These shears have a great shape giving them leverage and comfort to not fatigue your hands. They're by far the best quality and design I've had, my only regret is not splurging sooner!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Doesn't cut any more after a few years
on May 29, 2021
Posted by: rarecat
I love the ergonomics and it worked really well for a few years. But now, it doesn't cut any more. I thought it may be the screw was loose. But it still doesn't cut after I tightened it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

great shears

A great set of poultry shears without spending too much. The blades are super sharp and strong and cut right through. The handles are comfortable and i feel confident in the locking mechanism.
I would recommend this to a friend!
