Fitz AZ Cutting Scissors

The Fitz AZ series covers four blade lengths — 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, and 7.0 inch — all sharing the same offset handle and convex blade construction. The AZ-50 through AZ-70 model codes indicate length directly; the AZ-55L is a left-handed build on the 5.5-inch frame and is kept as a separate model to account for the mirrored blade geometry.

The offset handle is consistent across the range, positioning the ring finger below the thumb to reduce forearm rotation through a full day of cutting. For current pricing and stock across the AZ series, visit Takano Canada. The full Fitz range is listed on the Fitz brand page on ScissorPedia.

Professional Opinion

One platform, four lengths from 5.0 to 7.0 inches, all with the same offset handle and convex blade. That makes the AZ an easy series to settle into, and left-handed stylists get a dedicated AZ-55L model rather than an afterthought.

Maintenance Tips

  • Wipe blades after each client
  • Oil the pivot point regularly
  • Professional sharpening when edge dulls
  • Store in protective case
