What you can also use kitchen scissors for:
If you don’t have much strength in your hands, kitchen scissors can also help you open PET bottles. To do this, simply clamp the lid of the bottle between your teeth and this will make it easier to open the bottle. In this case, you save yourself an extra opener for bottles and cans. The jagged space can also be used – in keeping with the coming cold season – for cracking walnuts. Have you closed the wine bottle again with a cork? Then the serrated side of the scissors can help you carefully remove the cork.
Do you want to hang new pictures in your apartment? This works particularly well with a life hack.

There are also scissors that you can use to cut chicken bones or the shell of shrimp or lobster. Fish scales can also be removed with certain scissors.
