Herb Scissors

For the cook who is tired of bruising basil with a dull knife.

Oddity 1 is familiar. 5 is genuinely strange.

Five blades that turn a pile of herbs into a neat shower with one snip, plus the comb that gets the leaves back out.

Three reasons

  1. One cut replaces a minute of rocking a blade.
  2. The comb is the part that makes a five-blade scissor livable.
  3. Useful the first night, which is a fair test of a kitchen gift.
