Poultry shears...
I think the offset is important for poultry shears, unless you enjoy
ripping your hand open on cut bone ends. I'd use a sharp, heavy cleaver before even considering straight shears. My Global forged cleaver, at a full pound in weight, does the job easily. That said, I've used these Sabatier Ergonomic Poultry Shears for at least the last 15 years: http://www.amazon.com/Sabatier-33840...=cm_cr_pr_pb_t They have good mechanical advantage, so they do the job easily, and come apart for the dishwasher. -- Larry |

Many gardening tools have that notch too; I have pruners, loppers, and hedge shears that have a notch, |
