About Japanese scissors and snips
Spring form scissors first appeared in Japan in the sixth century. While most countries have abandoned them in favour of pivot scissors, the Japanese still appreciate the delicacy and precision that can be achieved when pinching the blades directly between forefinger and thumb. The snips featured here are all individually hand forged in Japan, they excel at placing very accurate cuts in soft materials.
