Description
A VG-10 steel swivel-thumb cutting shear from HASAMI, available in multiple lengths with left-handed options.
Where this sits
In HASAMI's cutting scissors lineup the HASAMI SWIVL occupies the mid-range tier, priced between the HASAMI Kata 5.75" and the HASAMI Fit. It uses VG-10, a Japan premium japanese stainless with a working hardness of 59–63 HRC. Manufactured in .
The SWIVL is HASAMI’s swivel-handle cutting shear. The rotating thumb ring allows the thumb to remain in a neutral, downward-pointing position throughout the cutting stroke, removing the rotational demand that fixed handles place on the thumb joint.
Blades are ground from VG-10 steel, which HASAMI describes as providing incomparable softness through the cut. The SWIVL is available in multiple sizes, with both right-handed and left-handed versions, as well as thinning variants.
For current pricing and availability, see the HASAMI brand page.
