Where this sits
In N.B.A.A.'s cutting scissors lineup the N.B.A.A. 6.3 Semi-Offset Cutting Scissors occupies the luxury band, priced between the N.B.A.A. 5.8 Semi-Offset Cutting Scissors and the N.B.A.A. Cutting Scissors 6.0/6.5. Manufactured in Japan.
The N.B.A.A. 6.3 Semi-Offset is a cobalt steel cutting scissor with a semi-offset handle — a geometry that sits between straight and full offset, allowing a more neutral wrist angle without the full reach of an offset design. Blade length of 6.3” gives room for slice-cutting and point-cutting across most hair types.
Made in Tokyo by Genuine Inc. For current specifications and pricing, see the Genuine Store or the N.B.A.A. brand page on ScissorPedia.

Professional Opinion
Semi-offset sits between straight and full offset, so this is a natural step if you are moving toward an offset grip but not all the way there yet. The 6.3 inch cobalt blade with a convex edge gives room for slice and point cutting.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
