Atali is Takano’s house brand for entry-level Japanese scissors, sold through the manufacturer’s Canadian hub alongside the company’s higher-tier Fitz, Links, and Yasaka lines. The collection is positioned for stylists who need reliable Japanese stainless without the price tag of Takano’s flagship cobalt shears.[1]
Takano’s catalogue highlights both everyday cutters and matching thinners. The KZ series covers 5.0- and 5.5-inch offsets with detachable finger rests, while the KZT-30 delivers a 30-tooth thinning profile for blended texture work.[1][3] At the top of the range, the DC-50B carries blue titanium-coated blades and an offset handle to provide a more premium feel without moving into Takano’s cobalt tier.[2][4]
- KZ-50 straight shear: 99 CAD, offset handle with permanent finger rest for general salon cutting.[1]
- KZT-30 thinner: 105 CAD, 30 teeth and matching handle geometry for smooth debulking passes.[3]
- DC-50B shear: titanium-coated 5.5-inch blades with offset ergonomics, priced at 139 CAD on Takano’s official store and US$232 through distributors.[2][4]
Because Atali ships out of Takano’s Canadian warehouse, salons tap into the same sharpening pipeline and accessory catalog that supports the company’s premium lines, while staying within a training-friendly price band. Availability through retailers such as Elka Beauté adds another stocking channel for shops that prefer regional suppliers.[2][4]
