Where this sits
In S.cosmo's cutting scissors lineup the S.cosmo YF Globally Series occupies the mid-range tier, priced between the S.cosmo NY Light Classic and the S.cosmo YL Globally Series. Manufactured in Japan.
The YF is an offset convex model in S.cosmo’s Globally Series, produced at Cosmo-Smith Co., Ltd.’s Sanjo City, Niigata facility. It shares the series’ core geometry: offset handle angles and a convex blade profile ground for clean, low-resistance cuts.
The offset configuration positions the thumb lower than the finger ring, keeping the elbow down and reducing shoulder elevation during extended cutting sessions. The convex edge performs across wet and dry cutting techniques, from blunt lines to point-cutting detail work.
A K-handle variant (YF-K) is available separately for stylists who prefer crane-style handle geometry. For full size and pricing information, see the official S.cosmo catalogue at cosmo-smith.co.jp.

Professional Opinion
A solid choice if offset ergonomics matter to you and you want a convex edge that moves between wet and dry work without fuss. Stylists who find their shoulder creeping up by midday often notice the difference an offset grip makes as the appointments stack up.
