Where this sits
In togiya's cutting scissors lineup the togiya LOOP Series Art Collection Cutting Scissors occupies the mid-range tier, priced between the togiya MKS-60 Maximum Professional Scissors and the togiya LOOP-60 Art Collection Cutting Scissors. Manufactured in Japan.
The LOOP Series sits in togiya’s Art Collection — the brand’s upper-tier professional range. Available in 5.5 and 6.0 inch lengths, it uses V Gold No.10, a higher-specification steel than the V-Gold No.1 found in the Classic Series, with greater hardness and a finer grain structure suited to demanding edge retention requirements.
The blade profile is a bamboo leaf convex — a hamaguri-style grind that produces a gently curved cutting face. This geometry excels in point cutting and dry cutting, where tactile feedback and clean tip work are the priority. The dial screw allows on-the-fly tension adjustment without tools, and the 3D handle ergonomics are designed to reduce hand strain during precision work.
Both sizes share the same steel, blade type, and handle system. The 6.0-inch variant suits stylists working with longer sections or those who prefer more cutting arc.
