Can Pampered Chef Kitchen Shears Cut Through Lids?

[pamperedape]

so...
can they cut through a lid?? There was some discussion on another thread that they might not be able to.

I don't have them yet and was planning to cut one at my show on Thursday with my host's. I wouldn't want to ruin them!!

I have to be honest... I still use my old ones at home. I prefer them much better.

I prefer the old ones myself. I haven 't tried to cut through a lid with the new ones but the old ones definitely would! I know that does not help. LOL!

I wouldn't risk it for the first time at a show. I had a customer return hers immediately and it looks like she tried to cut flower wire and wrecked them right away.

I wonder why anyone would want to cut through a lid anyway? But I did try to cut through a penny and it did cut it - I didn't cut it in half - just wanted to see if it would do it at all.

I love my old ones but I also love the new ones and actually prefer them! They are smaller so they don't take as much room in the drawer or TTA (I didn't hang my old ones - personal preference) and they work SOOOOOOO better for cutting paper - gift wrapping was always a pain when I grabbed the old ones.

I would do it to cross sell the can opener & the shears, showing how strong the shears are & that my DH stole mine for his tool case & I used mine(another sell) to open the totally sealed packaging...ie....small electronics,dolls or other small toys that are all wired up!!!

Hi there! I've been a Pampered Chef consultant for several years now and I can confidently say that our Kitchen Shears are top-notch when it comes to cutting through lids. They are made with high-quality stainless steel blades that are sharp and durable, making it easy to cut through tough materials like lids. I've personally used them to cut through various lids, including metal ones, without any issues. Plus, they have a comfortable grip handle that makes it easy to hold and use. I highly recommend giving them a try and I'm sure you'll be impressed with their cutting abilities. Happy cooking!
