Tip #3: Break Small Poultry Bones
If your scissors are heavy-duty (like), the ridged part can help grip and break small chicken bones, such as wings, thighs, or drumsticks.
Just hold the bone in the serrated area, apply steady pressure, and let the grooves prevent slipping. Be sure to use a strong pair—lightweight scissors may not handle this task.
Bonus Uses You Might Not Know
This little notch can help in many other ways:
Crack crab legs or lobster shells for seafood dishes.
Open tough plastic caps on juice or milk containers.
Loosen synthetic bottle caps in a pinch.
Hold twist ties or plastic seals securely so you can cut them neatly.
Basically, if something is slippery, tough, or hard to grip, this feature can lend a hand.
Why Do Manufacturers Add It?
Because it adds value and versatility. Kitchen space is often limited, so multi-use tools are especially useful. With this one feature, your scissors can act as a jar opener, nutcracker, and even a poultry helper.
