Kuhn Rikon Classic Snips are your trusted partner in the kitchen, crafting room, garage and garden. The self-sharpening, powerful blades lock together for safe storage and are spring loaded when in use, so gentle on hands. In the kitchen use to cut meat, bones, vegetables and frozen foods; in the crafting room cut cardboard, wrapping paper, ribbons and jewellery wire; in the garden trim flowers, shrubs, weeds, and small branches; and in the garage cut cardboard, paper, wire, thin metals, plastic, and much more. Suitable for left and right-handed use, the ergonomic handles also have a non-slip grip.
