Recommend some kitchen shears

[Flying Guillotine]

I'm on the look out for some replacement kitchen shears and have heard good things about the Shun shears.

Can anyone share a recommendation for a brand / style of kitchen shears that you've experience with?

I have some of these that I rather enjoy. I believe they were made for the poultry industry, but I use them as general-use scissors. VERY well-built.

I have a relatively cheap pair that I got at the local knife store that split into 2 pieces for cleaning cost me about $10. These aren't them but close http://www.amazon.com/Messermeister-2-Inch-Take-Apart-Utlility-Shear/dp/B0006SSXBY

Yeah, I think the Messermeister take-a-parts are the ones recommended on the cooking shows.

I have a pair of Wusthof shears that came with a Gran Prix II set that I like.

My mom uses a pair of Cutcos which I think are even better (and US made)

My dad used to have (maybe still does) A giant, heavy, solid steel, antique pair of tailor's shears that he used in the kitchen - they were simply awesome!
