    The steel decides the cut

    Hardness, edge retention and feel all start with the alloy.

    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.

    Built around your grip

    The handle decides how your wrist, elbow and shoulder feel at 6pm.

    Classic (opposing)Rings in line — the traditional grip; elbow rides high. Suits barbers trained on it. This pair
    OffsetThumb ring forward, elbow drops — the modern professional default for all-day comfort. This pair
    CraneDeep drop, lowest elbow position — built for 8+ hour days and shoulder relief. This pair
    Swivel thumbRotating thumb ring keeps the wrist neutral — the choice for RSI management. This pair

    How this pair cuts

    Edge geometry decides technique — and maintenance.

    Convex 蛤刃 hamaguri-ba Razor edge for slide and wet cutting — the silent, effortless cut premium Japanese scissors are known for. 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

    Keep the edge

    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.
