Where this sits
In Koi's cutting scissors lineup the Koi Bling occupies the mid-range tier, priced above the Koi Leap.
The Bling uses the same 440C Japanese forged steel and offset convex construction as Koi’s core cutting range, with decorative stones set into the handle shank and a pink jewelled tension screw. The decorative elements are surface additions; the cutting geometry and steel specification are unchanged.
