Not a lot of scissors can do the heavy lifting these can.

I use a cleaver over knives more than most people

I like using a cleaver because after a long enough time of wearing it down and sharpening it you eventually make it into a normal knife. Now that's what I call value.

Cut the plastic off wrapped meat and actually be able to properly clean them because they come apart

>> No.11488511

>>11487160
Scissors only work on materials up to a certain thickness, while knives don't have this limitation. Scissors are harder to clean. They're almost certainly not made to be as sharp and durable as knives, and I would assume are harder to resharpen. It's much easier to cut straight lines with knives. You can control depth of cut with knives whereas scissors have to cut all the way through something.

That's me thinking about it for like 30 seconds so there's probably more reasons too. Fucking apply yourself OP.

I've seen an asian fastfood place use scissors to cut meats, kinda unappetizing for some reason.

>> No.11488522

Why not make a pair of kitchen scissor that can be split into a sharpened knife and a serrated knife? Two knives that come together to make kitchen scissors?

>> No.11488524

>>11487160
sharp knives tend to make cleaner slices than scissors, i think that's the biggest reason
