Garden Scissors Okubo - Black

Experience the artistry of Japanese craftsmanship with the Black Okubo Scissors by TOYAMA HAMONO. Handcrafted by artisans in Sanjo Niigata, Japan, these scissors embody tradition and quality.

Established in 1861, TOYAMA HAMONO draws inspiration from the manufacturing methods of Japanese swords (KATANA) to create exceptional gardening shears. The razor-sharp blades of the Black Okubo Scissors are perfect for precise cuts, making them ideal for pruning branches, roses, flowers, and houseplants.

Crafted from stainless steel, these shears are resistant to rust, even in high-moisture environments. With a maximum cutting capacity of 10 mm in diameter, these scissors are versatile for general garden maintenance tasks.

Please note, these shears are designed for cutting plants only. Cutting other materials or using the product in an unreasonable manner may cause damage. After use, it's recommended to wipe off any dirt, especially on the blades, and store the shears in a box or dry location. Protect the blades from rust by wiping them with cutlery oil (or sewing machine oil).

Each pair is hand-forged and sharpened using traditional methods, resulting in variations and irregularities that add to the unique character of each tool. Made with stainless steel, these scissors are durable but require proper care to prevent rust. Remember to wipe them clean and dry after use, and if storing them for an extended period, consider oiling them.
