{"product_id":"saki-kotaro-hair-cutting-scissors-shears-set","title":"Kotaro Hair Cutting Shears Set (Hair Cutting and Thinning Shears)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost stylists assemble their kit one shear at a time and end up with tools that fight each other — different weights, different tensions, different edges. The Kotaro set solves that from day one: a cutting shear and thinning shear made the same way, from the same steel, with the same edge, so switching between them mid-cut feels seamless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShared DNA\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth shears are handmade from Japanese 440C stainless steel using two-piece welded construction, with Japanese-style convex edges hardened to 60–61 HRC. That specification means super-sharp, smooth cutting on wet or dry hair — and it makes the set particularly good for slide cutting, where a lesser edge would fold and push.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eErgonomics across the set\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach shear carries an offset handle with a removable finger rest, keeping the hand open and relaxed to head off fatigue in the hand, wrist, and elbow. With the cutting shear offered in 5.5\", 6\", and a 6\" lefty, the Kotaro fits virtually every stylist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe thinning shear\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe matching Kotaro thinner removes bulk, adds texture, and blends with genuine control: choose 5.75\" with 27 teeth or 6\" with 30 teeth, depending on whether you prefer a slightly more aggressive or finer texturizing action. Backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCutting shear specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese 440C stainless, handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese-style convex, 60–61 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-piece welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5 inch, 6 inch, 6 inch lefty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Offset with removable finger rest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThinning shear specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese 440C stainless, handmade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japanese-style convex, 60–61 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-piece welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.75 inch with 27 teeth, or 6 inch with 30 teeth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKotaro cutting shear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKotaro thinning shear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHair razor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeather carrying case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Saki Shears","offers":[{"title":"5.5 Inch","offer_id":52802975760696,"sku":"5Q-VYBF-AO7O","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Inch","offer_id":52802975793464,"sku":"KotaroSet6.0","price":275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/9216\/3384\/files\/saki-kotaro-hair-cutting-scissors-shears-set-studio-grey.png?v=1786713012","url":"https:\/\/shihanshears.com\/products\/saki-kotaro-hair-cutting-scissors-shears-set","provider":"Shihan Shears","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
