eBlade builds its whole pitch around how you hold the scissor. The UK brand, founded in 2017 and based in Surbiton, designs each shear for classic, Eastern, and inverted grips, with a stabilizing bar for balance. Five VG-10 models are catalogued from $578 to $621 at guide prices, each in 5.5, 6.0, and 7.0 inch lengths. The line took seven years to develop, according to the brand.
Overview
eBlade is a UK based scissor brand that focuses on ergonomic grip design. The brand produces cutting scissors, thinning scissors, left handed scissors, trimmers, and accessories. According to eBlade, the product line was the result of 7 years of development.
Product Range and Design
eBlade’s stated specialties are precision cutting and scissors over comb work. The brand sits in a premium price tier. eBlade’s distinguishing focus is multiple grip styles. The brand highlights three ways to hold scissors: classic, Eastern, and inverted grip.
The inverted ergonomic grip is a central part of eBlade’s marketing. According to the brand, this grip offers open cutting angles that allow for more creative freedom during a cut. eBlade scissors feature a stabilizing bar that the brand says provides better hand to scissors integration for balance and precision.
Who It’s For
Stylists who already work with inverted or Eastern grip techniques may find eBlade’s design philosophy relevant to their practice. For those trained exclusively in the classic grip, there would be a learning curve. The brand positions itself as a tool for stylists who want to explore different holding techniques rather than sticking to one approach.
Distribution
eBlade sells through its official website at ebladescissors.com and through Chris & Sons in the UK. For US stylists, the practical route is ordering direct from the brand’s site.
