Description
A 5-inch cutting shear in Japanese 440C steel, from the Alfa Italia MT Precisione line, available in offset and classic handle styles.
Where this sits
In Alfa Italia's cutting scissors lineup the Alfa Italia MT Rosa Precisione occupies the mid-range tier, priced below the Alfa Italia MT Mancino Precisione Left-Hand. Manufactured in .
The Alfa Italia MT Rosa Precisione is a 5-inch cutting shear from the MT Precisione collection, ground in Japanese 440C steel with a convex edge. It ships in two handle configurations: an ergonomic offset version that positions the thumb lower than the fingers, reducing wrist deviation across long cutting sessions, and a classic symmetric handle for stylists who work with a more upright grip. Both share the same blade length and steel specification at £180 retail.
At 5 inches, the MT Rosa suits precision-focused work — scissor-over-comb graduation, point cutting, and fringe detail where blade control takes precedence over cutting stroke length. The 440C alloy holds a fine convex edge through sustained daily use and resharpens predictably when needed.
The MT Precisione line sits across three steel tiers: Rosa at the entry level, Nero in the mid-range, and Platino at the top. All three are sold direct through alfaitaliapro.com. See the Alfa Italia brand page for the full range.
