Sorry if this has already been asked, but I searched and didn't see anything recent.  Aren't the Kuhn Rikon Kitchen Shears normally out by now?  I know the multiple presentations can be a little much, but I'm hoping they are the good version with the good lock this time.  I like to have them on hand for Christmas gifts and I have also given them as hostess gifts with good response.  

 

Just hoping they haven't been discontinued.  I know i can get them on eBay, but I like to get the sets from here.  Has anyone heard or seen anything on these?  Thanks.

@LoveMeSomeQVC - I also buy the shears every year. I checked my records, and if the timing stays the same as in previous years, the sets should be appearing within the next two weeks (my earliest purchase was on 10/14, but that was back in 2019).

Do the shears only last a year or do you buy for gifts?

I have been looking for them also on Sundays on ITKWD. I recall last year that Mark Micelli said they only come out in October. I’m assuming they will be on one of the ITKWD shows coming up in the next few weeks. I have a set of four I bought a few years ago which still work great, but I want to get another set since they’re hard to obtain.

I bought them the last two years.  Gave several as gifts but found another new pair.  I know i use a pair from probably 10 years ago.  (Because they have different handles).  Years ago you got 5.  I think last year were 3 sets.  One of my favorite QVC purchases.

I still own my original pair from about 10-12 years ago...still work great! Best shears I've ever used. I use them in the kitchen and all around the house, also gardening. Love them. I wonder, those of you looking for new ones...doesn't Amazon carry them too? I thought they did, because one time I was looking for some for a friend, when I needed immediate delivery, and thought I saw them there.

This is one of the best purchases that I've ever made from QVC! I have several pairs.

Amazon does carry them. They cost about $26 a pair.I've still got a couple of my original ones, as well as a few that were part of gift sets that I bought years ago. In addition to using them in the kitchen, I keep a pair with my gardening tools.

I just love these shears and keep looking for them also.  Hope someone puts out the word when they show up on QVC since I sure do not want to miss them.

What is so great about these Kuhn Rikon shears?  They look more like for the garden, not kitchen. 

 

I've heard of them, maybe I should start buying some.  What do you like about them?  TIA
