"Great Scissors - one catch"
I bought these scissors for my family members as gifts after finding they work great. I was able to cut a cornish hen in half with no effort. I also cut a two inch thick roast in half with no effort. After I opened one of the packages of scissors, I then used those scissors to open the other package of scissors and it was MUCH easier to open.

There is one catch though. I watched my dad try to use the scissors and the holes for your fingers and thumb did not appear to be big enough for his big hands. He ended up keeping his fingers outside of the loop, which looked more cumbersome. This is the only reason I did not give this five stars.

If you have normal or small hands, I totally recommend these scissors. They are sharp as scissors, but aren't as sharp as a knife when they are taken apart to be washed. I haven't had the chance to use them on any chicken bones yet. However, the way it cut the cornish hen in half, I doubt it will be a problem. I barely noticed there were even bones in the cornish hen.

The extra tools on the back of the loops do not get in the way when using the scissors.

"LOVE these shears!"
I bought a two pack (Amazon price of $7.99 is a better deal that I got on the two pack) and have one designated for meat trimming/food use and one for general purpose.
These shears are fantastic. The blade is a little shorter than I am used to, but the speed with which I can now cut through meats etc. more than makes up for the blade length.
Absolutely would buy again.
