Kokuyo Saxa Scissors

I’ve been on the hunt for scissors both myself (right handed) and my husband (left handed) could use. These are expertly made and are truly ambidextrous. My husband was amazed how they worked so easy for both of use. The copper coloring is beautiful and they cut beautifully. Excellent price for such a high quality product. I will definitely be ordering more.

These Japanese origin scissors are so functionally and stylistically superior that I ordered a second pair right away. (In case Amazon stops carrying them for some reason or another.) They work so well on frustratingly hard to cut materials like duct tape and plastic bags. They cut fabric sleekly too. Best of all, they don't quickly loose their sharpness like American brand scissors, maybe because they are made from high quality Japanese steel and not a cheap soft alloy. I really like the blade protector that comes with them as well. This is just a beautiful well engineered tool that the manufacturer Kokuyo clearly takes a lot of pride in. I was watching a Japanese TV show and there was a scene in a convenience store. In the background were various gadgets and scissors hanging on a wall behind the cashier. I recognized one of the packages as these very same Kokuyo scissors! I thought that was cool to see these scissors on a TV show and just HAD to mention it. These scissors are real stars and get the Scissors Oscar for best supporting role at my crafter desk.

Great scissors they are a must have for at home or work office. You won’t go back to regular scissors.

Well designed scissors that is comfortable to hold and great for cutting paper related crafting projects.

The media could not be loaded. These scissors work well enough but not great. I was trying to find a pair for multiple uses to replace a pair of fiskars that I have been using. I was looking for white scissors that were also left handed and found these. After reading about them and seeing that they come with a cover I thought I would try them.I have only had them for a short time so cannot attest to long term durability but they seem like a fairly good quality product as far as build quality goes. They feel like nice scissors. The inside of the grips are slightly soft and grippy. The blades open and close smoothly, they are fairly quiet and it is lightweight. I am not sure they are up to doing thicker material though. They do not seem as heavy duty as the fiskars pair I compared them with in the picture.I do not know about long session tape cutting usage and whether or not the tape gets stuck less or leaves less residue compared to others. But I tried these on tape, plastic, thin cardboard, cigarette filters, fabric and found mixed results. The thickness and density and finish of the material seems to effect the outcome, sometimes getting slid in between the blades as the blades flex outward and allow the material to just get smashed in the middle. I took a picture of one instance with a piece of t shirt material. I found that when cutting the fabric and cigarette filters that the material needed to be held firmly or the blades would slide off of them and not cut through at all. I tried showing this with the video. The blades are not grabbing the material for whatever reason. Some others immediately hold the piece you are cutting in between the blades due to the sharpness or texture(?) of the blades.I did find that tape still sticks to it although as said I don't know if it would be better after cutting tape all day.I also found that it is a decent handle but not specific to left or right hand and is not specially ergonomic in any way that makes it extra comfortable to hold. It is decent especially when compared to using specific right hand scissors with a left hand. But I may prefer a pair that shaped more for a left hand specifically. I also found that it does not cut quite as well with the left hand. Something about the way the blades move and the force your hands apply is different fore at least and I have had mixed results with the left hand cutting. I think that they are a comparably priced pair of scissors especially since they have a cover. It fits well enough by the way. Slides on and off smoothly and seems like it will last for a while.Side note, it does cut a straight line, if the material does not slide away.

Beautiful and sharp. They cut well, they fit in my hands beautifully, and they are totally worth the price!

super smooth cut. everyone should replace their childhood scissors with these. they’re amazing!

If you never try this one please try this.you will experience different cut from ordanary one
