Professional Opinion
At around $375, the RHEA sits in the upper part of the Matsukaze cutting range and shares the offset handle and convex edge the brand builds across its line. Stylists who like a scissor that glides through slice cuts will feel at home with this geometry. Choose 5.5 inch for precision work or 6.0 for general cutting.
