About this shear
The Hanami is a VG-10 cutting shear finished in the soft rose tones that give the model its name — 花見, the Japanese tradition of cherry-blossom viewing. Beneath the decorative finish sits the same hardened steel and clean offset handle that our everyday VG-10 line relies on, balanced for precision slice cutting and scissor-over-comb work. Hand-finished in our Tokyo workshop across 124 steps, the Hanami is built for stylists who want their bench tool to carry a little of its origin with it.

What does Hanami mean?
