Masterfully custom-built for left-handed professionals, the blade orientation is fully reversed to offer precise cutline visibility and natural shearing power for southpaw workers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnlike standard double-edged models, one side functions as a bypass-style anvil receiving jaw, providing superior structural strength and leverage to cut through thicker branches with ease—especially when using the base of the blade near the pivot bolt. Forged from premium high-carbon cutlery steel using traditional Yamagata hand-forging techniques, it incorporates an authentic Hollow Ground Back (Urasuki) and precision hand-adjusted Hinari alignment to prevent sap and resin buildup. Combining heavy-duty branch-cutting capacity, leaf-shaping accuracy, and true left-handed ergonomics, this all-in-one shear is an essential tool for professional arborists and landscapers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBrand: Tobisho\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eModel: Yamagata Single-Edged (Kataba) Single-Handed Hedge Shear (Left-Handed) \/ Black Handles \/ Without Guard\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eOrientation: Left-Handed (True Left-Handed Blade Geometry)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTotal Length: 270mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBlade Length: 125mm (from bolt center to blade tip)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSteel: Premium High-Carbon Cutlery Steel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBlade Type: Single-Edged (Kataba \/ Anvil-Style Pruning Jaw for Thicker Branches)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eJoint Type: Screw Joint\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLock Type: Handle Latch (Kanamedome)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eHandle Option: Traditional Black Finish Handles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBack Finish: Authentic Hollow Ground Back (Urasuki \/ Sap \u0026amp; Resin Resistant)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBlade Alignment: Hand-Adjusted Hinari (Twisted Blade Alignment for Crisp Cut Engagement)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eGuard Type: Without Guard (Open Handle)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFeatures: Yamagata Master Hand-Forged \/ True Left-Handed Construction \/ Kataba Single-Edged Versatility \/ Heavy-Duty Branch Cutting Capacity \/ Traditional Black Handle Finish \/ Sap-Resistant Urasuki \u0026amp; Hinari Structure \/ Exceptional Sharpness \u0026amp; Durability\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eProcess: Traditional Yamagata Hand-Forged \u0026amp; Finished\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eOrigin: Made in Japan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tobisho \/ Tobizuka Seikyosho","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52825969885496,"sku":"83383-991","price":440.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/6778\/4504\/files\/IMG-5320.jpg?v=1790568055","url":"https:\/\/niwakokoro.com\/products\/tobisho-left-handed-single-edged-single-handed-hedge-shears-black-handles-without-guard-total-length-blade-270mm-125mm-high-carbon-cutlery-steel-traditional-hand-forged-from-scratch-hollow-ground-buck-twist-blade-screw-joint","provider":"Niwa Kokoro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
