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.

As for the scissors, all processes are made by a Japanese craftsman. whole bodies of scissors were heat treated. This special process manufacturing adds extra strength and durability. Type A has thin, razor-sharp blades. Perfect for cutting fibrous branches.

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
