Global Kitchen Shears

These shears are crafted from CROMOVA18 stainless steel, the same high-performance material used in Global knives. They feature a heavy-duty cast steel handle and a serrated blade designed to maintain its edge through rigorous daily use.

No, these shears should be hand-washed only. Dishwasher detergents and high heat can damage the steel and compromise the sharpness of the blades over time.

Yes, the ergonomic cast steel handles are designed to provide a secure, comfortable grip. While they have a substantial feel at 7.4 ounces, the balance is optimized for steady, controlled cutting.

The simplified construction eliminates tight crevices where food particles and bacteria typically accumulate. This design makes the shears much easier to clean thoroughly after handling raw proteins or sticky packaging.

The integrated nutcracker is built into the handle area, allowing you to easily crack open nuts or even twist off stubborn bottle caps. It adds a layer of utility without adding bulk to the tool.

The fine serration is designed to grip ingredients to prevent slipping, which actually helps with precision. While they are excellent for herbs, poultry, and packaging, they are not intended for fine, paper-thin slicing tasks where a smooth-edged blade would be preferred.
