The Akane is Juntetsu's premium rose-gold cutting shear, named for 茜 — the madder-red dye that lent its color to traditional Japanese textiles. VG-10 steel sits behind a deep rose-gold titanium coating built to resist wear across a lifetime on the bench, and the offset handle anchors precision slice cutting with a natural wrist angle. Hand-finished in our Tokyo workshop across 124 steps, the Akane is the shear for stylists who want their primary blade to announce itself.
