Shears do the work a knife does badly: cutting a chicken spine out without a board, snipping herbs straight over a pan, opening a vacuum pack without stabbing the contents, trimming fat off a chop while you hold it in the other hand. They are the cheapest useful thing in this catalogue, and the range starts at $11.69. They are the ones people say they reach for without thinking about it.

The distinction worth checking before you buy is whether the blades come apart. A detachable pair separates at the pivot and can be washed properly between the blades, which is where the mess actually collects. A riveted pair cannot, whatever the water temperature. The heavy duty poultry pairs also carry a notch near the pivot that grips bone instead of letting it slide, and that notch is the difference between cutting through a joint and crushing it.

03Asked before ordering

Huusk Kitchen Shears: questions

What people ask us about kitchen shears before they pick one.

Will your Huusk kitchen shears come apart for cleaning?

The detachable pairs do, and that is the feature to look for. Food collects between the blades at the pivot, and a riveted pair cannot be cleaned there properly however hot the water is.

How do Huusk poultry shears differ from the scissors in your drawer?

Heavier blades, a stronger spring and a notch near the pivot that holds a bone still while the blades close on it. Ordinary kitchen scissors let the bone slide out and crush the joint instead of cutting it.

Can you put Huusk kitchen shears in your dishwasher?

Hand wash them. A dishwasher will not destroy a stainless pair, but the detergent is abrasive and the blades come out duller than they went in, which for scissors is the whole of the tool.
