Know before you buy
While the stainless steel construction is durable, these scissors are primarily designed for serving salads and light culinary tasks like snipping herbs. They are not intended for heavy-duty butchery or cutting through bone.
To maintain the wood's finish, hand wash the scissors with mild soap and water, then dry them immediately. Avoid soaking them in water or putting them in the dishwasher, as this can cause the wood to warp or crack.
The herb stripper features small, calibrated holes along the metal portion of the tool. You simply pull the stem of an herb, such as rosemary or thyme, through the appropriate hole to quickly strip the leaves from the woody stalk.
Yes, the acacia wood handles are ergonomically shaped to provide a comfortable, natural grip. The design balances the weight of the stainless steel, making them easy to handle during serving or prep work.
These are designed as a versatile hybrid tool that excels at serving and light prep. While they are sharp enough for herbs and soft ingredients, they are best used as a stylish serving piece rather than a replacement for dedicated, heavy-duty kitchen shears.
