Cutting Blade Design:  The cutting blade is forged and finely polished into the traditional and popular Japanese convex edge and are hollow-ground on the inside of each blade to give a razor sharp cutting action day in and day out. 

Handle Design:  The handles are “offset” for holding the shears in a more natural and comfortable hand position. This puts less stress on the thumb tendon and helps reduce the risk of repetitive motion CTS. 

Adjusting System:  Our popular dial-spring-leaf-tension system allows for easy adjustment without a tool and holds the desired tension setting securely.

Removable Finger Rest:  The finger rest is removable to suit a wider variety of cutting styles. Remove as needed by simply unscrewing the finger rest.  

Sculptured Handle:  The shank of the handle has been contoured to provide a “groove” for the middle finger and the index finger to create more control and feel.
