Description
Single bend offset scissors from Koi in 440C Japanese forged steel. Hollow ground convex blade; zip case included. Available in 5.0", 5.5", and 6.0".
Where this sits
In Koi's cutting scissors lineup the Koi Extreme occupies the entry-level tier, priced between the Koi Elegance and the Koi Leap. Manufactured in .
The Extreme sits above the Elegance in Koi’s cutting range, using the same 440C Japanese forged steel with a single bend offset handle for a more pronounced thumb drop. The hollow ground convex blade suits precision work including point cutting and slide cutting.
Three sizes — 5.0”, 5.5”, and 6.0” — cover the most common professional preferences. A zip case ships with each pair.
The single bend offset geometry is a step up in ergonomic positioning from a classic even handle, without the more aggressive angle of a fully cranked design.
