    Hi! I’m just wondering if this JA Henckels Solingen stork scissor is vintage or far more valuable than the others currently in the market. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Peace & Love!????????

      We don't discuss values here..but a quick search reveals non Henkel versions under $10 and Henkel versions under $30. However that's what people are asking, not what they sold for..so value may be lower.

      Now..what you need to figure out is, how old your pair is? If you have an older pair, then the value increases. It appears by the box, that yours aren't that old.

      Here's another pair. Interesting information in the comments..

      These were actually made in Germany. Last I knew their products were only made in Germany and Mexico. Zwilling means twins in English therefore the two little stick men (twins). If made in Mexico there would only be one stick man, that is how you tell where it was made. Their trademark started in the year 1731 and is one of the oldest in the world. They still have a web site you could contact for help dating these.
