Description

Bud Trimming Scissors “Pointy Small” are not only sharp and beautiful, but also compact and designed to fit comfortably in your palm.  This means that you can easily switch between using your hands and the scissors when pruning trees or plants that require both methods.  Many Japanese gardeners, for example, use their hands constantly when pruning new buds of pines, making these scissors a handy tool for similar projects.

Work More Efficiently and Comfortably

Japan’s long history and exceptional dedication to garden maintenance have resulted in a wide range of garden tools designed to meet specific needs. It is only natural for a country like Japan to come up with innovative tools like these scissors.  They improve both work speed and comfort significantly.  Despite their small size, Bud Trimming Scissors “Pointy Small” are strong enough to handle small branches, eliminating the need to carry multiple tools.

Compact scissors Suitable for Smaller Hands

The “Pointy Small” bud trimming scissors are more than just a tool for using your fingers and scissors simultaneously.  They feature a design element that sets them apart from other scissors of this type: inclusivity.  Designed by a Japanese female garden expert, these scissors cater not only to the typical user but also to demographics that are often overlooked, such as women and younger users with smaller hands.  Bud trimming scissors “Pointy Small” offer a versatile tool for gardening, including children’s gardening.  The handles do not open as wide as other scissors of this type, allowing for easy grip.  This makes it possible for precise cutting of leaves and thin stems with just one hand.  Despite their sharp blades, these scissors are safer when used correctly and provide better control and comfort thanks to their small size and ergonomic design.  Even when used for extended periods, users with smaller hands can avoid discomfort or strain.

inclusive and universally accessible design

This product accommodates a wide range of users with varying abilities.  Bud trimming scissors “pointy small” are 17cm in total.  This is less 2 to 3cm from total length compared to most scissors.  The handles are also thinner, making it easier for users with limited hand strength to grip, including young users, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities.

The “Pointy Small” bud trimming scissors are the result of a collaboration between two of the world’s top garden tool manufacturing regions: Miki, Hyogo and Sanjo, Niigata of Japan.  They are crafted from S55C steel, a high-strength alloy renowned for its toughness and wear resistance.  Designed by a garden tool distributor in Miki and individually handmade by skilled artisans at a reputable scissor manufacturer in Sanjo, Niigata, which has been in operation since 1939, each pair of scissors is meticulously crafted to ensure they maintain sharpness and exceptional quality over time.

 

Meaning behind the flower logo on the box

The Bud Trimming Scissors “Pointy Small” come in a beautiful charcoal gift box, making them a perfect gift.  The box features the scissor’s logo and brand name, “Ken-Katabami,” “Ken” means sword and “Katabami” translates as flower wood sorrel.  The wood sorrel is a popular Japanese family crest motif for its resilient life force that does not wither even when trampled as a weed, emphasising the durability and longevity of these scissors.

For other tools for trimming, see Mini Pruning Secateurs “Leather Mini.”
