When will lignum vitae scissors become a thing?
My teen daughter just returned from her annual visit with her Japanese grandparents … and for omiyage, brought her little brother back a pair of Hasegawa CANARY cardboard-cutting scissors. They are very nice.
Oh, cool!
I’m actually looking for a new pair of (kitchen) scissors! Which should I buy?
It doesn’t need to be super heavy duty, should have a blade length of at least 3 inch, probably more towards 4 or even 5 and will cut mostly packaging and stuff like that, no poultry for example. (I’ll probably end up buying two or three and finding out which is best)
Edit: I had a (not so quick) look but I really had a hard time finding these scissors in a webshop that ships to the Netherlands. I’m interested in the Lei Fujii swing cut and the Kokuyo Hakoake scissors. It seems like I succeeded at placing a order for the swing cut one at rakuten.co.jp but have yet to pay, I guess the shop will contact me about this? Hope they speak English
