They handle soft rosemary sprigs well. Very woody stems are better stripped by hand first, then snipped.
Do the blades really stay clean?
The included comb is the secret — a quick pass clears trapped bits that would otherwise slow you down.
Are they dishwasher safe?
Hand washing is kinder to the edges. If you do use the dishwasher, dry them promptly afterward.
