Description
N.B.A.A. 5.8" semi-offset cutting scissor in cobalt steel with a convex blade. Made in Tokyo by Genuine Inc.
Where this sits
In N.B.A.A.'s cutting scissors lineup the N.B.A.A. 5.8 Semi-Offset Cutting Scissors occupies the premium tier, priced between the N.B.A.A. Shave Cut Scissors and the N.B.A.A. 6.3 Semi-Offset Cutting Scissors. Manufactured in Japan.
The N.B.A.A. 5.8 Semi-Offset is a compact cobalt steel cutting scissor suited to stylists with smaller hands or those who prefer a shorter blade for detailed work. The semi-offset handle keeps the wrist in a relatively neutral position, which can reduce forearm fatigue across a full day of cutting.
