Green Mouse builds nothing for stock: every pair of its Japanese scissors is handmade to order, the brand says, and has been since Green Mouse Co., Ltd. started in Kamagaya City, Chiba Prefecture in 2002. Five models carry guide prices of US$600 to US$839 across 5.5 and 6.0 inch lengths, working Japanese steel, cobalt alloy, and Damascus. Specialties stretch from sword cutting to V-wave thinning.
Overview
Green Mouse is a Japanese scissors brand founded in 2002. The company, Green Mouse Co., Ltd., is headquartered in Kamagaya City, Chiba Prefecture. According to the brand, every pair is handmade to order by skilled craftsmen. Green Mouse has maintained this made-to-order production approach since its founding.
The brand uses exclusively Japanese steel for its scissors. According to Green Mouse, after testing materials from both domestic and international sources, the company concluded that Japanese steel paired with local processing techniques produces the most durable results. The selected steels are chosen for abrasion resistance, rust resistance, and long lasting sharpness.
Product Range
Green Mouse manufactures cutting scissors, thinning scissors, and left-handed scissors. The brand covers a broad set of specialties: blunt cutting, slide cutting, point cutting, volume control (10 to 65%), texture control, sword cutting, convex cutting, delicate cutting, and V-wave thinning.
The brand emphasizes three principles in its product design: form (visual appeal), function (comfort and usability for the stylist), and quality (the inherent performance of the tool). According to Green Mouse, these three elements must work together as one.
Distribution
Green Mouse scissors are carried by several international retailers including Scissor Dude, Shear World, yoiscissors.co.uk, Scissors shop Hayashi, and Scissor World (Australia). The brand’s official website is greenmouse.jp. Listed guide prices span US$600 to US$839.
