Details

There is a reason educators point students toward Japanese-forged shears when they are ready to invest: the forging tradition behind them descends from sword-making, and it shows in the edge. The Saki Koten sits at the top of the Saki lineup—every pair hand-forged and finished in Japan from a proprietary Super Stainless Alloy developed specifically for long edge retention.

What does that mean at the chair? A convex blade refined to the point where wet and dry cutting feel equally effortless, and an edge that holds its keenness through far more services between sharpenings. The tension system deserves its own mention: a super-soft, precision tension control that adjusts smoothly and lets you dial the action to your exact preference—a small detail that pays off across an eight-hour day.

Who this shear suits

Experienced stylists and barbers ready for a genuine made-in-Japan instrument. Four lengths cover everything from detail work at 5.0" to scissor-over-comb and barbering at 7.0".

Generally, women prefer scissors between 5.5” and 6.0" as they tend to fit their needs comfortably, while men usually choose larger shears, with a preference for those between 6.0” and 6.5”. For specific techniques like scissor over comb and styling longer hair, scissors that are 6.5” to 7” in length are advised. Nonetheless, the primary factor should be how comfortable the scissors are to use, making sure they feel natural in your hand and align with your cutting style and techniques.
