For Right-Handed


Type B has a thick, semi-rounded blade suitable for cutting the branches of yard trees or fruit trees as well as flowers in your garden.

■ Features

The soul of a craftsman who is particular about sharpness and ease of grip and sharpens in a single pair of shears.

Since the entire blade is evenly quenched using a temperature-controlled lead bath, the blade does not open or bend even under harsh use, unlike conventional products in which only the cutting edge is quenched using coke.

"Only human hands can do it" Sharp sharpness due to delicate hand-sharpening finish

Type B has a thick clam shape and can cut hard and thick branches with a strong force that splits trees

Please try the "real scissors" that are unique in the world born from human hands

■ Caution

Since it is a handmade product, there are individual differences in size and weight

If you sharpen the back of the scissors, you will not be able to cut it, so never sharpen it

We also accept grinding and repair at actual cost, so please contact us and send it to our shop

The picture shows shears of 200mm.

The one and only scissors. Because it's all made by the artisans of Ono City, Hyogo prefecture by hand.

The blade of these hand pruners has a steeper curve. The tip of the blade is thinner while the bottom of the blade is thicker, which makes it perfect to cut a bigger branch of the fruit trees and other garden trees. There is a spring between the handles, so they open up widely. It is also curved which makes it easy to grip. There is a variety of hand pruners, in different sizes, some in stainless, and some for the left-handed. Additionally, there are two shapes: Type A and Type B. Type A has a thinner blade than Type B, so it requires less power to cut. Type B has a thicker blade and more durable and heavy-duty than Type A. Type B is recommended for frequent users. 
 
By sharpening regularly, the product lasts for a long time. But do not sharpen the back edge, please sharpen the front edge only and do not use the hand pruners to cut metal as it may result in a chipped blade.
