Where this sits
In HASAMI's cutting scissors lineup the HASAMI Toughblade Swivel Left-Hand occupies the premium tier, priced above the HASAMI Fit. It uses VG-10.
The Toughblade is HASAMI’s premium cutting shear tier, with a blade construction that the brand positions above the GSC and SWIVL in durability and cutting performance. This page covers the left-handed swivel variant.
The swivel thumb ring allows the left-handed thumb to stay in a neutral position throughout the cutting stroke. Available in 5.5”, 5.75”, 6.0”, 6.25”, and 7.0” lengths. Right-handed and non-swivel Toughblade variants are also offered through HASAMI.
