The Juntetsu Black Cobalt is a Japanese ATS-314 cobalt steel cutting scissor with a slim sword-profile blade, a convex edge, and a matte black multi-layer coating. It has a symmetric classic handle and is available in 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0 inch sizes for right-handed cutting.

  • Description

The Black Cobalt brings premium cobalt steel together with a stealth matte black finish and a traditional symmetric handle. It is a clean, understated scissor for stylists and barbers who want a classic grip and a slim, precise blade.

Matte black coating

The finish is a multi-layer matte black coating applied over the steel. It is an allergy-neutral coating engineered to resist chipping and hold its matte look through a long working life.

ATS-314 cobalt steel and a sword profile

ATS-314 is a cobalt alloy stainless steel known for its hardness and wear resistance, hardened here to around 62-63 HRC. The blade is ground slim with a subtle sword profile and finished with a hand-honed convex edge, so it stays light and precise in the hand while cutting cleanly through wet or dry hair.

Symmetric classic handle

Unlike an offset, the symmetric classic handle sets both rings level with each other. Many stylists prefer this traditional grip for control in precision and barbering work, and a finger rest helps steady longer sessions.

Choosing your size

The 5.0 inch suits detail and precision work and smaller hands. The 5.5 inch is a versatile in-between length. The 6.0 inch gives more blade for all-round cutting and scissor-over-comb.

  • Frequently asked questions

Is the black coating allergy-neutral?
Yes, the multi-layer coating is allergy-neutral.

How do I care for the coated finish?
Wipe the blades clean and dry after each client and add a drop of scissor oil at the pivot regularly. Avoid abrasive cleaners so the matte coating keeps its finish.

What is a symmetric classic handle?
It is a traditional handle where both finger rings sit level, rather than the staggered position of an offset. It gives a familiar, controlled grip that many stylists prefer for precision and barbering.

Is this scissor available for left-handed stylists?
This model is built as a right-handed scissor. If you need a true left-handed pair, contact our team before ordering and we will let you know the current options.

Where is it made?
The Black Cobalt is made in Japan from Japanese ATS-314 cobalt steel.

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.
