Kasho Scissors

Kasho Scissors are special hand crafted hairstylist scissors which are known for its quality and durability. In the early years, these scissors were made by skilled craftsman from Japan who would work hard to give them a sharp finish and form.

But today these hairstyling shears are created by using advanced engineering and heat treatment technology. Special attention is given to the design and standards that has been followed since a century. This process provides the same quality scissors which were made by the Japanese Samurai sword smithies.

Even history tells us that these special scissors were of great importance then as they are now. Today many professional hair stylists use the Kasho Scissors because no other hairdressing scissors can come close to them, in terms of the cutting edge technology. These scissors are accurate, durable and a pleasure to work with. Their build is superb and the performance is simply amazing.

These shears come in straight, offset and semi-offset varieties to suit the needs of the stylist. The straight style offers a more conventional cutting tool and is advisable for those coming from a straight scissor to their first Kasho. The offset variety can be used once the hairdresser is comfortable with the grip and the handle of the straight one. But mostly the semi-offset variety is used by majority of the hairstylist, probably for the comfort factor.

Other notable benefits include a high quality ratchet screw at the pivot point, which allows the user to adjust the cutting tension according to their preference. Also, a removable finger rest sits at the top of the scissors to aid comfort and the blades are finished in satin. The blades are either convex or semi-convex to ensure accuracy and lower the resistance, thereby reducing hand fatigue.

The reason why the Japanese worked so hard in sharpening their samurais was because they knew the importance of a sharp samurai. Similarly every professional hairstylist knows the importance of Kasho Scissors and hence feels pride in using them to give a cool hair stylist which makes the heads turn around.
