Description (商品説明)

Masterfully hand-forged in Sakai, Japan, under the legendary Minamoto Akitada brand, these Traditional Japanese Gardener Scissors represent the pinnacle of Japanese blacksmithing. Forged using High-Speed Steel (HSS)—a premium alloy typically reserved for high-stress industrial drill bits—these shears deliver extraordinary hardness, high impact resistance, and exceptional toughness for long-lasting edge retention.

The high-grade HSS edge is joined to the soft iron backing using a traditional copper-brazing process, a rare and demanding technique marked by a distinct copper-orange line along the blade. Featuring a traditional hollow ground back (Urasuki) to reduce friction and sap buildup, this tool glides effortlessly through branches. Compact, perfectly balanced, and built for fine detailed pruning, this rare masterpiece is ideal for professional arborists, landscapers, and bonsai artists seeking ultimate cutting durability. Extremely limited production.
