Mina Umi Master Hair Cutting Scissor Set6.0" Thinning · 4.5" Cutting · 4.5" Cutting£310.70

The Mina Umi master set combines two selectable cutters with a fixed 6.0" 30-tooth thinner. All three use SUS440C at 58 HRC, convex edges, offset handles, mirror polish and key-adjustable screws; every combination is right-handed.

Two cutting scissors and a fixed 6.0" thinner with 30 V-groove teeth form the Mina Umi master set. Each cutter can be selected from 4.5", 5.0", 5.5", 6.0", 6.5" or 7.0". All three tools use SUS440C at 58 HRC, convex edges, offset handles, mirror polish and key-adjustable screws.

Cutter lengths may match or use separate classes; the thinner stays 6.0". Straight blade profiles apply to the cutting tools.

The storage box contains the set, maintenance cloth and care guide. A travel case and tension key are bonus extras. Two selectable cutters and a dedicated thinner give a student one coordinated kit for building distinct cutting and weight-removal steps.
  • Two cutter positions with choices from 4.5" to 7.0"
  • Master-set thinner: 6.0" with 30 V-groove teeth
  • All three tools use SUS440C at 58 HRC
  • Convex edges and keyed screws across the three-tool set
  • Right-handed only
  • The 6.0" thinner cannot be resized
  • The toothed edge needs a sharpener who preserves its V-groove layout

How to use

Choose two cutting lengths from 4.5", 5.0", 5.5", 6.0", 6.5" and 7.0", then keep the 6.0" 30-tooth thinner in its fixed role. The cutters may match or divide different parts of the work.

At 58 HRC, the set’s number describes hardness rather than sharpness, toughness or edge life. Read it beside the SUS440C steel and convex grind instead of using it as a standalone ranking.

The thinner’s V-groove tips retain selected strands through the close. Enter inside the outline and away from the root, make one close, comb through and inspect before deciding on another.

Sharpening & Care

Clear the thinner’s V-groove teeth with a soft brush, never a fingertip. Packed hair can make a sound tool snag, and a servicing sharpener must preserve the tooth geometry.

Make key adjustments in small stages and repeat the drop test after each one. A large turn can pass the useful setting in either direction.

Close the three tools and keep them dry and separated in the travel case, each in its own position. Loose blade contact with other metal items can damage an edge in transit.

After any hard-floor drop, stop using the affected tool and inspect it carefully under strong light without touching the edge. A changed feel or sound deserves professional inspection even if no chip is visible.

Built around your grip

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.
