Our verdict

Forged and built to come apart for cleaning, this 8.5-inch shear handles heavier tasks than a basic kitchen scissor.

Overview

An 8.5-inch pair of forged stainless steel kitchen shears with a detachable blade design for full cleaning, plus a built-in bottle opener and nutcracker notch. LIVINGO credits the forging process with a harder, smoother-cutting edge than standard stainless.

Beyond the shears themselves, the detachable design is the practical feature: the blades separate for cleaning and are dishwasher safe once apart. The bottle opener and nutcracker are secondary functions built into the handle rather than the blade itself.

  • 8.5-inch forged stainless steel shears
  • Detachable, dishwasher-safe blades
  • Built-in bottle opener and nutcracker
  • Mirror-polished blade finish

Who it's for

Suited to someone who wants one heavy-duty shear for poultry, herbs and general kitchen cutting and prefers being able to take the blades apart to clean them fully. Less useful for someone who only needs a light, single-purpose herb scissor.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Detachable blades come fully apart for cleaning
  • Forged stainless steel construction
  • Built-in bottle opener and nutcracker
Cons
  • Detachable pivot adds a part that can loosen with heavy use
  • Larger and heavier than a basic kitchen scissor

Performance notes

The forged construction is what LIVINGO ties to durability, describing the steel as pressed to a higher density than standard stainless, which it says produces a smoother cut and a mirror-polished edge. The detachable pivot lets the two blades separate for cleaning, addressing the grime that tends to build up at a fixed pivot on ordinary kitchen shears.
