Keiun Damascus Cutting Scissors

Description

Keiun’s Damascus cutter is full Damascus construction — stainless steel folded around a cobalt alloy core, hand-forged in Sanjo, Japan, with a distinctive moire pattern that comes from the metal itself rather than any surface treatment. A guard-tempering process adds toughness, and the convex edge gives clean, smooth slicing for detailed work. Offered in 5.5 and 6.0 inches, it covers detail through to everyday all-round cutting. This is a craftsman’s scissor for a stylist who wants their main cutter to be a genuine forged piece, not just a finish over a standard blade.

Professional Opinion

“The cobalt core under the Damascus layers gives this a properly fine edge, so it performs as a real everyday cutter and not just a display piece — club cutting and slicing feel smooth in both the 5.5 and 6.0. The forged moire pattern means each one is unique, which clients notice. The honest caveats are the familiar Damascus ones: it’s a significant investment, and forged blades deserve careful drying and storage to keep them at their best. If you want a hand-forged main cutter, this earns its keep.”
