About
Jyo-Utopia is a professional hairdressing shear line from the Utsumi Company (株式会社内海), a Japanese scissor maker founded in 1987 by Chimaki Utsumi.

The Jyo-Utopia catalogue spans a wide spread of models, among them the AN, AW, Concorde 58, EV, FC65, KING 85, the SR-60B Black Titan, and the SLIDE 55. The shears are hand-forged in Japan from Japanese stainless steel, though Utsumi does not publish a specific steel grade for the line.

About the brand
Jyo-Utopia is a Japanese professional hairdressing shear brand from the Utsumi Corporation family — the Osaka-based group established in 1987 that also produces the Jyo, BW, and U&U lines. The Utopia positioning within the Utsumi family typically indicates a distinct aesthetic or construction variant rather than a different manufacturing origin.
