Are these good to open plastic clam shell packaging?

I have used them for clam shell . But, I just cut along my item to open the package. The plastic will pull apart.

They are sharp enough for paper. but usually what you want with paper scissors is that they be longer blade length so you get a straight cut. If you are not as concerned then yes for sure. These could be used to open taped up packages, with the straight or serrated edge. Its a compromise though, A box cutter will be better for opening boxes and a pair of titanium edge paper scissors is best for paper. But these would work well in a 'industrial' work environment. They are made for clipping plants and cutting rope after all.

I just used it for at least fifty almonds. I've tried different ways to open the shells, and because they're usually soft, it's kind of cumbersome. You can still open the almonds just fine, but they might get a little "stuck" since the shells are again, soft.

Not really, they are brittle plastic. Maybe with a good pair of wire cutters or small saw

I do not know since I have only applied them to plastic food containers. They work well in that application

Yes. I use a scissors to snip off the number I need and then individually open them and plop them into the water I want to sterilize. I try not to touch them so I have to be careful to aim them into the container so they don't wind up on the ground

THEY ARE NOT AIRTIGHT!!!!Good for crafts or buttons I guess?The plastic seal between the metal cap and the jar is not designed to be airtight seal.

I don't know. I sent these to a friend. He loves he chicken, but said nothing about how he opens the cans. Sorry.

These are made to cut wire, so plastic should be no problem. The cuts are as clean and flush as they can possibly be. You may still need to sand a little.

yes, but don't use cheap ones. They will get jammed and cut your finger trying to pull them out.

I don't know. What I do know is that the plastic containers are pretty fragile. I managed to crack two of the three I bought. However, I have put each one in a plastic baggy until I need it. The product is quite good [used some last night to scramble eggs in] but the packaging could use an upgrade. I think if you handle them carefully when you get them you should be okay. I was just a little careless.

I would ythink that they would perfectly for that purpose. They are similar size with plastic lids instead of metal ones.

No these are for a press. If you look at one of the shell holders there is a notched bottom. On the hand primer the bottom is smooth.

yes, just squeeze them to get them through the oblong opening and they work fine.

I'm not sure. These work very well. They are about the same. I liked these because you can clean them! They also double as a bottle/can opener :)

The retail package opener should have a section about 1/4th inch long at the very end that is sharpened to an edge to make it work like a hook blade. It is used for opening plastic clamshell packaging.

Hard to say. They aren't sealed so it's possible. They have the usual plastic cap on them.
