Five Kodo models cover cutting and thinning. The B45 Professional Cutting Scissors (US$95) and A50 Professional Offset Cutting Scissors (US$89) are the cutting builds, with the A50’s offset designation indicating a handle that positions the thumb below the ring finger to reduce forearm rotation. The EOP Professional Offset Cutting Scissors (US$100) and EOP Thinning Scissors (US$100) offer a matched offset pair at the same price. The CT35 Professional Thinning Scissors (US$95) completes the thinning side of the range.
The US$89 to US$100 spread is tight. Kodo keeps pricing consistent across its five-model range, which simplifies buying decisions for professionals building a matched kit.
