Where this sits
In S.cosmo's cutting scissors lineup the S.cosmo YM Convex Pleasure Series occupies the premium tier, priced between the S.cosmo YS Convex Powerful Series and the S.cosmo YM Sword Pleasure Series. Manufactured in Japan.
The YM Convex is the standard convex option within S.cosmo’s Pleasure Series, made at Cosmo-Smith Co., Ltd. in Sanjo City, Niigata. Where the YM Sword uses a straight blade line, the YM Convex carries a traditional curved blade profile suited to a broader range of cutting techniques.
The offset handle positions the thumb ring below the finger ring, lowering elbow elevation and reducing shoulder strain during continuous work. The convex blade provides a smooth cut path from heel to tip, performing reliably across blunt lines, scissor-over-comb, and basic texturising.
The Pleasure Series offers both this standard convex geometry and the sword profile YM Sword variant. See cosmo-smith.co.jp for current size and pricing details.

Professional Opinion
The conventional curved blade profile makes this the more versatile of the two Pleasure Series shapes, covering blunt lines, scissor-over-comb, and light texturising with one tool. A practical everyday scissor for stylists who like offset geometry and a traditional convex feel.
