Okatsune Discount Code 15% OFF for April 2025

Okatsune's Sharp Scissors are uniquely forged from the finest Izumo Yasugi steel and are traditionally used to make katana swords used by samurai. The steel is characterized by a high carbon content and is forged by the best Japanese master blacksmiths using ancient techniques. This process is only carried out in the Izumo area, and only Izumo iron sand is used. Through an innovative tempering process, the company has successfully industrialized high-quality shears with very high Rockwell hardness of 60.0 to 61.0. This hardness ensures that the cutting edge remains sharp, cutting wood with ease and the blades slide smoothly over each other for an easier cutting action. The soft metal in the core of the blade maintains flexibility so the cutting blade is always aligned with the secondary blade, even after heavy use.
