Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Kasho KSL different from other Kasho scissors?
The KSL Slide Cut Series has blade geometry specifically optimized for slide cutting technique. While other Kasho models handle slide cutting adequately, the KSL is purpose-built for it with reduced resistance and a specialized edge profile.
Why is the Kasho KSL so expensive?
The KSL sits at the top of Kasho's cutting range due to its specialized blade geometry and limited production. It is a specialist tool for stylists who use slide cutting as their primary technique, not a general-purpose scissor.
