Where this sits
In N.B.A.A.'s cutting scissors lineup the N.B.A.A. GM Cutting Scissors occupies the premium tier, priced below the N.B.A.A. Shave Cut Scissors. Manufactured in Japan.
The GM series covers N.B.A.A.’s two-size cutting range — 5.7” and 6.2” — built in special steel with an offset handle and convex edge. The 5.7” suits compact hand sizes and close-in scissor-over-comb work; the 6.2” gives more blade length for bulk cuts and point-cutting.
Both models share the same steel grade, blade geometry, and handle design. For specifications, sizing, and current pricing visit the Genuine Store or see the N.B.A.A. brand page on ScissorPedia.
