Hello Kitchen

Zhang Xiaoquan Knives and Kitchen Scissors

Zhang Xiaoquan is one of China's oldest knife and scissor brands, with a history tracing back to Hangzhou in 1628. The brand has been a household name across Asia for centuries and is known for blades that balance sharpness, durability, and everyday practicality.

The Hello Kitchen range covers kitchen knives, Chinese cleavers, kitchen scissors, knife sets, and a selection of household scissors for tasks beyond the kitchen.

Kitchen Knives and Chinese Cleavers

The knife range includes Chinese-style cleavers for chopping meat and dense ingredients, chef's knives from the Ancient Forging Series made using traditional forging techniques, and multi-piece knife block sets suited to home cooks who want a complete setup. Handles range from bamboo wood to full stainless steel depending on the series.

The Black Knight and Chunmu series are built for heavy daily use, with wide, weight-forward blades designed for powerful cuts through meat and bone. The Ancient Forging Series round-head chef's knife is a lighter option suited to general prep work.

Kitchen Scissors and Bone Shears

Zhang Xiaoquan's kitchen scissors are among their most popular products. The bone shear range is built for cutting through poultry, fish, and meat with stainless steel blades and aluminium alloy handles. Several models feature a detachable blade design for easier cleaning.

For general kitchen use, the multi-purpose shears handle vegetables, herbs, and lighter cutting tasks and work just as well outside the kitchen for packaging, herbs from the garden, and everyday household jobs.

Household and Specialty Scissors

Beyond the kitchen, the Zhang Xiaoquan range extends to tailor shears, hairdressing scissors, children's safety scissors, and nail clippers. The craft scissors are made from the same high-grade stainless steel as the kitchen range, just shaped for different tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about Zhang Xiaoquan

Zhang Xiaoquan was founded in Hangzhou, China in 1628, making it one of the longest-running blade manufacturers in the world. The brand has been producing scissors and knives for nearly 400 years and remains one of the most recognised names in Chinese cutlery.

A Chinese cleaver has a wide, rectangular blade that's heavier and broader than a Western chef's knife. It's designed for chopping through meat and bone, scooping and transferring ingredients, and the broad flat side can be used to crush garlic. A Western chef's knife has a narrower, more pointed blade suited to slicing, dicing, and detailed prep work. Many home cooks use both depending on the task.

Most Zhang Xiaoquan stainless steel scissors and shears can be hand washed and dried immediately after use to maintain the blade edge. Check the individual product listing for specific care instructions, as models with detachable blades can typically be disassembled for a more thorough clean.

The main things to consider are blade material, handle comfort, and what you'll mainly be cutting. For heavy tasks like poultry and bone, look for dedicated bone shears with a thick stainless steel blade and a sturdy handle. For general use, a multipurpose kitchen shear that handles both food prep and household tasks is usually more practical. A detachable blade design is worth having for hygiene and easier cleaning.
