Where this sits
In HASAMI's cutting scissors lineup the HASAMI Kata 5.75" occupies the mid-range tier, priced between the HASAMI Rosy 6" and the HASAMI GSC. It uses VG-10.
The HASAMI open-handle shear (listed on the ScissorPedia catalogue as the Kata 5.75”) features an open-geometry handle that keeps the finger rings wider apart than a traditional offset handle. This suits stylists who find conventional handles too narrow.
Blades are ground from VG-10 steel. The range covers 5.25”, 5.75”, 6.25”, and 6.75” lengths in both right-handed and left-handed configurations.
For current pricing and availability, see the HASAMI brand page.

Professional Opinion
The open-handle geometry keeps the finger rings wider apart than a conventional offset. A genuine relief if standard handles feel narrow on your hand. Four lengths and left-handed options mean the Kata fits a wide range of professional cutting styles.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades clean after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in a protective case
