Japanese scissor steels trade hardness for resilience. Higher-carbon alloys such as VG-10 hold a razor edge longer between services; cobalt alloys add corrosion resistance and a silky closing action; 440C is the proven workhorse — tough, forgiving and easy to maintain. Hardness is measured on the Rockwell scale (HRC): most professional Japanese scissors sit between 58 and 62 HRC.

Wipe the blades dry after every cut. Oil the pivot weekly with a drop of scissor oil, open and close gently, and store dry in the case. Avoid cutting anything but hair — and book a professional service if the edge ever pushes or folds.
