People left mindblown after discovering what metal part between handle of scissors is for | May 18, 2025

If you’ve got a big pair of kitchen scissors then they’ve probably got a weird toothy bit between the handles which doesn’t quite come close enough for cutting stuff.

You can snip-snip-snip all day long with the normal scissor parts of the scissors but what’s the point of those weird metal jaws in between?

You can’t really cut things with them since the toothy blades don’t meet in the middle and the whole point of scissors is to cut things.

Fortunately, you can learn pretty much anything by going on the internet and seeing whether anyone else has asked about it before you.

It’s the new way knowledge is passed down through the generations, not through giving advice in person but by digging through old forums to find that one person who posted the right answer.

It’s also how a lot of IT problems get resolved, if turning it off and on again doesn’t work then Googling your problem and hoping that some bloke from 2011 posted the answer online can often do the trick.

Anyhow, back to those metal jaws they put on some pairs of scissors.

The specific kitchen scissors are officially known as ‘kitchen shears’, and those teeth they have are really useful for plenty of culinary tasks.
