Question
Do scissors for cutting chicken require immersion?
(plastic + metal)
Answer
Hello,
There is a difference in custom regarding this.
According to Ashkenazi custom, they should be immersed without a blessing.
According to Sephardic custom, they do not require immersion.

The Shulchan Aruch and the Rema disagree on this in Shulchan Aruch, Yoreh De'ah, Siman 120, Se'if 5, regarding a slaughtering knife.
Since the meat is not fit for consumption at the time of contact with the knife.
The same applies to these scissors.
