We have received new Tane scissors from Umekimoto Tane Scissors Factory. (Except for the 5-inch size)
These scissors are completely hand-forged from forging and are extremely sharp.
The twisted blade, a feature of the Tanegashima scissors, is bent in a smooth arc so that the two blades meet at a single point. This "neri" creates an outstanding sharpness and allows cutting with less force.
Please check out the product page for Umeki Hontane Scissors, which are said to be sharpened with every cut.
