Unlocking the Hidden Power of Your Kitchen Scissors

Ever noticed the jagged section between the handles of your kitchen scissors—the little metal teeth tucked behind your fingers? Most people glance at it and think, What even is this? If you’ve never used it, you’re not alone. Many ignore it entirely, assuming it’s just decoration.

But here’s the secret: it’s actually a powerful tool. Not a random design quirk. That tiny ridged section is a built-in gripper you’ve likely been overlooking. Let’s break down what it is, how to use it, and why it deserves a spot in your kitchen toolkit.

What Is That Toothed Part?

You’ll find it near the handles’ curve—sometimes metal, sometimes reinforced plastic. Close the scissors slowly, and the ridges lock together, forming a strong gripping surface.

Brands call it different things: “jar opener,” “nutcracker,” or even “bone cracker.” Essentially, it boosts traction and control whenever your hands aren’t enough.
