How this pair cuts
Edge geometry decides technique — and maintenance.
Convex 蛤刃 hamaguri-ba
Razor edge for slide and wet cutting, designed for a quiet, low-resistance cut.
This pair
Semi-convex
Sharp yet forgiving — the versatile all-rounder, easier to maintain than full convex.
This pair
Bevelled 段刃 dan-ba
Durable workhorse edge with audible feedback — suits blunt cutting and training.
This pair
Sword blade 剣刃 ken-ba
Ridged spine adds power through thick, dry sections and scissor-over-comb work.
This pair
Convex edges need specialist sharpening: a standard grind can flatten the profile. Use a sharpener experienced with convex scissor blades.
