ABSTRACT:
Meat and poultry scissors are disclosed as including a pair of swingably interconnected blades fixed to respective thumb and finger handles. The blades are flat and the thumb handle presents a thumb-receiving opening defined about an axis that is oblique relative to the respective blade, while the finger handle presents a finger-receiving opening defined about an axis that is perpendicular to the respective blade. In addition, the blades are different lengths, with the longer blade having a blunt outermost, distal end and a cutting edge that is spaced from the distal end. The end of the shorter blade presents an outermost distal end that is spaced generally the same distance from the end of the long blade as the cutting edge of the long blade.
