The KS is Juntetsu's Powder Steel cutting shear — a less-common alloy choice than VG-10 or cobalt, chosen specifically for its fine-grain structure and exceptional edge uniformity across the full length of the blade. The offset handle is drawn from our core geometry, and the Powder Steel platform rewards stylists who can feel the difference between "sharp" and "evenly sharp." Hand-finished in our Tokyo workshop across 124 steps, the KS is the understated choice for stylists whose standards include metallurgy.
