Why do kitchen scissors need teeth between the handles?

Large kitchen scissors are a truly indispensable thing in the household. They cut almost anything. Within reason, of course. Most of these scissors are also equipped with special teeth on the handle. And as practice shows, most housewives and owners do not even have the slightest idea why they are needed at all.

It will sound unexpected, the teeth on the handle of large kitchen scissors are needed to perform three kitchen functions! Who would have thought. However, since scissors never come with an "operating manual", most citizens do not even realize that those very cloves have at least some functional purpose. Many mistakenly believe that this is nothing more than some kind of decorative element. What can you do with teeth?

First, you can chop walnuts. In any case, once it was for this purpose that the cloves were conceived. However, given the fact that most things in our time are consumer goods with a quality level of "Made in China" from the 1990s, it is hardly worth testing your only scissors for strength like experiments.

Secondly, the teeth can be used as a corkscrew for tightly screwed corks on plastic soda bottles. It turns out such "kitchen pliers". Thirdly, the teeth were conceived as a means of holding the fish during cleaning. The fish is placed on a cutting board, after which its tail is clamped with scissors. It is very convenient to clean the sides from scales with such a grip.
