Tips and hints

"TWIN" multi-purpose shears are practical kitchen shears. They have been given the "Excellent Industrial Design"-Award for their exemplary shape. ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS multi-purpose shears are an especially successful example of the synthesis of modern design and outstanding function. "TWIN" multi-purpose shears are available in several colours.
Their advantages are:

1. Robust shears made of FRIODUR® ice-hardened special steel

The stamped metal parts made of high-grade, no-stain FRIODUR® steel are icehardened and inseparably connected with their plastic handles. "TWIN" multipurpose scissors are corrosion-resistant, sharp and extremely solid. These scissors are ideal for all cutting jobs in the kitchen.

2. Careful surface treatment

"TWIN" multi-purpose scissors have a finely ground surface structure. The blade inset is carefully ground.

3. Micro-Serration

The scissors have a micro-serrated upper shear blade and are accurately ground to remain sharp for a long time. The cut of "TWIN" multi-purpose shears is effective for paper, cardboard, carton and even carpets.

4. Screw set

"TWIN" multi-purpose scissors are fixed with plastic bearings with steel screws (under the red trademark cover). Thus the closing action can be adjusted precisely and a specialist can, if at all necessary, regrind the scissors.

5. Large, well-formed eye ring grips

The eye rings of "TWIN" multi-purpose scissors are so large that they can be securely grasped with more than one finger and handled without tiring. The inner sides of the eye rings are so carefully finished that they have no burrs or rough edges. Painless work is guaranteed. These synthetic handles are suitable for allergic persons.
