Where this sits
In Bi Design's cutting scissors lineup the Bi Design GT Cutting Scissors occupies the mid-range tier. Manufactured in Japan.
The Bi Design GT sits above the HD in the Bi Design line, stepping up to cobalt steel for increased edge retention between sharpenings. The GT series is manufactured in Tokyo by DOWA International under the Passion/Bi Design retail arrangement with Sciss O Hans in the UK. Cobalt additions to the alloy raise hardness compared to standard 440C, allowing a finer edge bevel to hold through more cuts before requiring service.
The offset handle and convex grind carry through from the HD series. A click-stop tension adjuster is included, and the GT ships with a leatherette carry case for bench or kit-bag storage.
