Scissors Built for the Kitchen
Kitchen shears are one of the most underrated tools in the home kitchen — capable of cutting pizza, breaking down poultry, snipping herbs, trimming parchment, and opening packaging faster and more safely than a knife. A good pair of kitchen shears should be sharp, comfortable, and either dishwasher safe or easy to take apart for cleaning.
At Tarzian West for Housewares, Brooklyn's neighborhood kitchen store for over 50 years, our kitchen shears selection covers everyday multi-purpose scissors to specialized poultry and seafood shears.
All-Purpose Kitchen Shears — The Wüsthof Kitchen Shears for the most trusted name in cutlery applied to kitchen scissors — sharp, durable, dishwasher safe, with a micro-serrated blade that grips as it cuts. The Joyce Chen Multi-Use Kitchen Shears for a classic take-apart design that has made Joyce Chen shears a kitchen staple for decades. The Original Unlimited Kitchen Scissors for an all-purpose workhorse at an accessible price. The My Favorite Multifunction Scissors and Take Apart Utility Shears for everyday cutting tasks.
OXO — The OXO Kitchen Shears with Herb Stripper for a two-in-one tool: sharp all-purpose blades plus a built-in herb stripper for removing rosemary and thyme leaves from stems without a knife.
Poultry Shears — The Messermeister Stainless Steel Poultry Shears for heavy-duty, spring-loaded shears designed specifically for the task of breaking down whole chickens and other poultry — curved blades, robust enough to cut through cartilage and small bones.
Seafood Shears — The Maine Man Seafood Shears for cutting through lobster, crab, and shrimp shells — a specialized blade profile that gets into tight spaces without crushing the meat.
