The 1776 Series: An American Answer to Japanese Powder Steel

Nearly every premium shear worth owning comes out of Japan. The 1776 Series is Saki's deliberate challenge to that assumption: a professional cutting shear that is forged in the USA, finished in the USA, and built from a proprietary American powder steel developed specifically for this line. Fully USA-manufactured shears at this level are almost unheard of; this is not an imported blank with a flag stamped on it.

Why 64 HRC Matters

Hardness is the number that predicts how long an edge survives real salon work. The 1776's powder steel is engineered to reach 64 HRC, which places it among the hardest professional hair shears you can buy. Powder metallurgy produces an extremely fine, uniform grain, and that combination of hardness and grain structure means the cutting edge resists wear far longer than conventional steel. You sharpen less and cut confidently more.

In practical terms, this shear competes with Japanese powder steel shears selling for $1,500 and up.

Early Access

The 1776 Series launches through an early access release at $399. Expected ship date: September 1. Reserving now puts you among the first professionals to work with a fully USA-forged, USA-finished powder steel shear.

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.
