Minamoto Akitada Left-Handed Traditional Japanese Gardener Scissors Total Length & Blade (215mm/86mm) Aogami Blue Paper Steel [Traditional Hand-Forged from Scratch / Left-Handed / Urasuki Hollow Ground / Rivet Joint]

Description

Masterfully hand-forged in Sakai, Japan, under the legendary Minamoto Akitada brand, these Left-Handed Traditional Japanese Gardener Scissors are specially constructed for left-handed professionals who require uncompromised precision. Crafted using high-grade Yasugi Aogami (Blue Paper Steel), these shears deliver exceptional hardness, outstanding edge retention, and an extraordinarily smooth, velvety cutting action.

The blades are reversed specifically for left-hand use, featuring a traditional hollow ground back (Urasuki) to minimize friction and sap buildup, along with a durable rivet joint construction. This ensures perfect line-of-sight visibility along the cutting edge and comfortable handling during extended pruning sessions. Built to professional standards, it represents fine Japanese blacksmithing tailored for left-handed arborists and landscapers.
