Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kershaw Taskmaster Shears
Customer Review: A Great Pair of Kitchen Shears
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my third set of kitchen shears, replacing a pair of Wusthof Kitchen Shears, which in turn replaced a pair of Henckels Kitchen Shears several years ago. The Kershaw shears are superior to both, IMHO, as to quality and utility. They are quite sturdy and very sharp, clearly up to any task I'm apt to put them to in my kitchen (e.g., cutting out the backbone of a whole chicken). The bone notch looks like it will do the job on chicken legs, etc., quite easily. And they're comfortable to use despite my large hands. Also, they're very easy to take apart for cleaning and easy to reassemble -- no tools required. I also like the built-in gadgets, such as a bottle opener, screwdrivers, nutcracker, and jar opener.
One comment: the Kershaw Taskmaster Multi-Purpose Shears are IDENTICAL to the Shun Kitchen Shears -- they come from the same factory. The Shuns cost about $7 or $8 more and include a plastic sheath with a magnet (to attach it to your stove, I guess), which didn't interest me.
The Kershaw Taskmaster Multi-Purpose Shears are the best I've found for the money. Highly Recommended!
Description of Kershaw Taskmaster Shears
TaskMaster Shears are multipurpose tools. In addition to handling a wide variety of cutting tasks, they include a nutcracker, jar opener, bone notch, lid lifter and screwdriver tips. For easy cleaning, the blades fully separate.Made from high-carbon, cutlery-grade stainless steel, these well-made shears are great for a variety of uses--from cutting pizza to cleaning just-caught fish. They combine a straight edge with a serrated edge for maximum versatility. Plus, this handy kitchen tool?s bonus features are numerous. A lid lifter pries under rolled metal lids to raise them quickly and easily, while its unique handle design helps grip the lids of tough-to-open jars. Other highlights include a bottle opener, nutcracker, and bone notch for grabbing game or poultry bones. Blades un-hinge for easy clean-up, and are safe to clean in the dishwasher. Ideal for trimming meat, snipping herbs, or cutting flowers, these shears are as useful for the hunter, fisherman, or outdoors lover as they are for the home cook. --Mary Park
