Where this sits
In Kennomai's thinning scissors lineup the Kennomai YM-30M Thinning Scissors occupies the premium tier. Manufactured in Japan.
The Kennomai YM-30M is a 30-tooth thinning scissor in the YM modified series, manufactured in Tokyo. The “30M” in the model code indicates the tooth count; the YM prefix places it in Kennomai’s modified-handle family, which uses an offset handle geometry. The YM-30MG is the gold-finish variant of the same model.
At 30 teeth, the YM-30M sits in the mid-range for blending — suitable for softening bulk and texturising medium to dense hair without producing visible chunk lines. It pairs naturally with the YM cutting scissors for stylists working within the same series. Confirmed pricing and stock are at Kennomai’s online store or the Kennomai brand page on ScissorPedia.

Professional Opinion
Thirty teeth is a versatile middle ground for a thinner: enough removal to manage dense hair, fine enough to avoid harsh lines. The YM-30M does that job on an offset handle, made in Tokyo, with a gold-accented YM-30MG variant for those who like the look. Pairs naturally with the YM cutters.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
