This high-gloss polished stainless steel pair of classic Italian kitchen scissors is handmade by Fennek (Italian for "Fox") a little-known, but highly respected Premanese scissormaking shop. Featuring a bone notch in the forward blade, as well as deep serrations for firm grip and stability while cutting, this form is amongst our most popular. Lightweight and multi-purpose (note the bottle opener and cracker functions between the handles), the blades detach fully for cleaning. Looking for a different finish? The Alpen Italiano Classico kitchen shears are very similar, but with a matte surface.
An essential in the kitchen, we recommend considering having two pairs of hot forged kitchen shears in varying sizes and styles; once you do, you'll find yourself reaching for your knives and tidying up less and less... and you may never go back!
