Garden Niwaki | Taira Ueki Garden Scissors

Hand-Forged, Hand-Laminated Garden Scissors From Taira San, In A Slightly Milder Yellow Paper Steel Than His Preferred Blue Paper, Resulting In A Tougher Pair Of Scissors That Will Put Up With A Degree More Mistreatment (Not That You’Ll Be Inclined To Mistreat Them) For More Robust Work.

Expect Some Play Or ‘Clack’ In The Blades – This Is Intentional: The Action Of Cutting With Them Applies Lateral Force Which Makes The Blades Bite Correctly. Were They Any Tighter, The Additional Force From Your Hands Would Cause Them To Be Unhelpfully Tight In Use.

Perfect In The Garden And Home, Particularly For Those With Larger Hands.
