Are the shears in this set the same as the ones being sold on amazon as Wusthof 5558-1 Come-Apart Kitchen Shears?

I do not know the number but the shears do come apart and are made in Solingen, Germany.

I don't really know because I never compared those two.But it works fantastic. It's a very good product.

Yes, the model # on the shears that came in the set say 5558 next to the Wusthof name.

I don't know if the model is exactly the same, but the shears do separate into two pieces -- makes washing easy. It opens to about 90 degrees and then comes apart.

I believe they are made by the same manufacturer as the Swiss Army knife. I do not know where.

They are not. Those are the international blades. These are Solingen steel; they don't have the same stability of superior Henkels blades but are not trash.

Gingher and (Italy) is under the name. I love these shears. Fiskars welcomed Gingher as part of William Sonoma back in 2005 which is why you see both together.

I can't answer your question, but be careful. I bought a set of these knives at Gumps and they were very high quality. Then I bought what was advertised as the same thing on Amazon (same thickness of blade, etc), and they were MUCH lighter and cheaper. I returned them.

I'm not sure about the exact same quality, but I purchased these over 6 ninths ago and they are still sharp and work great!

Don't know. Lowe's Home improvement stores might know. They are sold in some of them, and my local store stupidly stopped. The blades are TERRIFIC.

Yes, they are the "classic". Although they are not of the quality of the other knives in the set. But then again that's probably to be expected. Still good quality for a steak knife.

I don't think so...I have a set from my wedding 16 years ago and it is marked "18/10 stainless" on the handles. These new ones are just marked "stainless steel" and have a bit of a lighter weight than the older ones. Not a significant difference from the old ones though and the pattern is exactly the same.

Yes, these are standard Shears and they are very nice; will fit in any block that has a kitchen shear slot.

This is twice the price of the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin L Shears also sold at Amazon which made me go to the Zwilling J.A. Henckels website. They mentioned cutting poultry with this particular version (which did not appear with the Twin L version - that was simply called a general purpose kitchen shears). Looking at the difference in construction this one looks to be heavier.

Hello, I went to the amazon site and my set looks exactly like the single ones. Hope that helps.

I own this knife and it is a 1211 model, but really they look exactly the same and seem to have the same specs.

Other than the product # they seem to be the same trimmer in my opinion. there could be some differences but I have not found them
