We seem to go through kitchen shears like they are paper towels in this house, but these have lasted and lasted. They are sharp and the added jar openers are an added bonus. They cut up crab legs and chicken with ease.
The product picture showing the package with the red background is exactly what I got. The two shears are slightly different. The "poultry" shears have a little slot which we use for things like flower stems or green bean ends. I doubt they would cut through a chicken leg, but we haven't actually tried it. They might get through a joint between the bones though. Unfortunately, since the blades don't line up perfectly, the notch will often catch. I can only use the tips for cutting, such as last night opening a frozen spinach bag.
The other "all-purpose" shears is the same but without the notch. Both are 8" long with 2.75" blades and have white hexagonal plastic covers on the rivet joint. There are notches along one blade but these are only for decoration; the cutting edges are straight, not serrated.
There doesn't seem to be much if any quality control at "Diamond Cut Supreme". The blades on our poultry shears don't even touch as you close them until about half way down the blades. The all-purpose shears don't quite finish closing, leaving the tip slightly open. But both are sharp and can cut through plastic blister packs with ease.
If you only need one the all-purpose shears are available alone: Diamond Cut Multi-Purpose Kitchen Shears.
These are (of course) made in China. There is a Dallas Texas address for warranty service listed on the package; you must include a check in "an amount equal to what you are paying to return the defective product." Obviously your cost would be more than what you are paying to buy these.
These are OK for disposable purposes, but if you want nicer kitchen shears, try Chicago Cutlery Centurion Shears. Ours were great until they ran off. I also bought Betty Crocker Scissors / Kitchen Shears from a dollar store, and even they are much more smooth and better made than these.

Bought these to replace a similar one that died after years of abuse, brand initials c.c. Unfortunately these two have no edge at all, they seem sturdy, though you can't detach the halves to clean, but doesn't really matter if I can't manage to cut a piece of string with them they won't ever get enough use to get dirty.Read Best Reviews of Diamond Cut Supreme 2pc Kitchen Shear Set Here
I bought these as backup for the kitchen since our scissors always seem to disappear. I tried using them all last week on different items in the kitchenbags, paper, produce, and it honestly could do the job at all.The only part of the scissors that actually cuts is the first 1/2 inch.
Seriouslydollar store kids scissors would cut better than these.

the only thing I dont like this that the shears are a bit short and the handles are not comfortable to hold. I do like that they dont come apart. I hate the meat scissors that come apart they always seem to break apart and go falling towards your foot.Save 46% Off
