Global Scissors Aria Left-Handed Cutting & Thinning Scissors

Description

This is a genuine left-handed build from Global Scissors, ground the correct way round so the blades close in your favour and the top blade sits where a left hand can see the cut. The steel underneath is 9CR18, a hard chromium stainless that takes a fine edge and holds it through cutting and thinning. Over the top runs a rose-gold finish that is a durable plated surface, with carved rose handles and a pink diamond at the centre for the designer touch. It comes in 5.5” and 6.0”, the two lengths most left-handed cutters reach for first.

Professional Opinion

“For a left-handed stylist this is the pair I point to first, because it is a true left grind rather than a right-handed scissor sold as ambidextrous — the blades track correctly and you can actually watch the line you are cutting. The 9CR18 edge is crisp enough for detail and the carved rose handle with the pink-diamond centre makes it a real statement on the bench. Honest limitation: at 5.5” and 6.0” it is built for in-hand cutting and detailing, so if you work mostly on long lengths you will want something bigger alongside it. Keep it dry and serviced and the rose-gold finish stays bright.”
