What are the best Cutman scissors?
The CD-50 (US$179) is the 5.0 inch model. The CD-55 (US$182) adds a 5.5 inch option at a modest step up. The CD-60 (US$189) covers the 6.0 inch length. All three are available through Takano Canada at takanocanada.com.
Cutman is a single-purpose line: cutting only, no thinners. The three models step through the most common professional lengths in small US$3 to US$10 increments. Takano Canada lists blunt cut, slide cut, and point cutting as the three supported techniques.

The Cutman range
The Cutman line is deliberately narrow: three cutting models covering the most common professional lengths, stepping from US$179 to US$189 in small increments. Takano Canada lists blunt cut, slide cut, and point cutting as the supported techniques, and there are no thinners in the line.
How we chose
The three catalogued Cutman models are the full line, so the picks are the range itself: the CD-50 at 5.0 inch, the CD-55 at 5.5 inch, and the CD-60 at 6.0 inch, all through Takano Canada at takanocanada.com. Guide prices are at time of writing; confirm current figures and availability directly with the brand or its authorised retailers. Sets and left-handed models where listed separately are not included here.
