Kihachi Curved Topiary Shears

$414.00

Kihachi Topiary Shears are one of the most talked about in our garden product range.  It is extremely popular amongst topiary professionals around the world and we are the only few distributors in the world to have these shears custom made by Yoshioka Hamono.   Their ultra sharp blades feature a unique indentation design which is often described as “self-cleaning”.  The surface of bottom blade is curved inwardly and the hollow ground blade serves to collect sap, gum and debris.  This allows the blades to stay clean resulting in a more efficient cut.  This, combining with the top quality “Yasugi Hagane” Japanese steel, is one of the reasons these shears stay sharper longer than others.  Curved blades are even harder to make and Yoshioka’s are the best of the world.

As they are extremely popular, they often get reserved before reaching us.  If you find these shears are out of stock online, do contact us and we can reserve yours today.

Kihachi Garden Shears are made of high quality “blue grade” Yasugi Hagane Japanese steel developed by Hitachi Steel.

Description

Kihachi Curved Topiary Shears are one of the most talked about in our garden product range, especially among topiary professionals worldwide.  We are proud to be among the few distributors to offer these shears, which are custom made by Yoshioka Hamono.

Curved Shears Making all the difference

Their ultra sharp blades feature a unique indentation design which is often described as “self-cleaning”.  The surface of bottom blade is curved inwardly and the hollow ground blade serves to collect sap, gum and debris.  This allows the blades to stay clean resulting in a more efficient cut.  Combined with the top-quality “Yasugi Hagane” Japanese steel, these shears stay sharper longer than others.  Curved blades are  notoriously difficult to make.  In addition, the Yasugi Blue Grade Steel used in these shears comes with a hefty price tag even as a raw material.  Only master craftsmen like Yoshioka Hamono can make it work and they do the best job in the world.  Our users tell us that they snip much less using these Kihachi Curved Topiary Shears, making their job of shaping buxus balls and other topiary designs much easier.  And these topiary artists do need to chop hundreds of times!

Kihachi Topiary Shears are made of high quality “blue grade” Yasugi Hagane Japanese steel developed by Hitachi Steel.  The shears come from one of the most renowned cities for hand forged steel products in the world – Ono City in western Japan.  The artisan manufacturer “Yoshioka Edged-Tool Works (Yoshioka Hamono)” have been testing and polishing their skills and knowledge since 1946.
