Description
Yamajo Cobalt Basic cutting scissors in cobalt steel with offset handle and convex blade. Available in 6.0" and 7.0" lengths, made in South Korea.
Where this sits
In Yamajo's cutting scissors lineup the Yamajo Cobalt Basic Cutting Scissors occupies the entry-level tier, priced between the Yamajo Cobalt Step Cut Plus Cutting Scissors and the Yamajo VG10 Bearing Masterway Cutting Scissors. Manufactured in South Korea.
The Yamajo Cobalt Basic series covers two blade lengths — the 6.0” Cobalt Basic Blunt 6 and the 7.0” Cobalt Basic Long 7. Both are built in cobalt steel with an offset handle and convex blade. The 6.0” handles standard salon cutting across hairlines, layers, and general work; the 7.0” Long offers additional reach for slide cutting, one-length cuts, and stylists who prefer to pull through a wider section per stroke.
Yamajo has produced scissors in Daegu, South Korea since 1991 and publishes cobalt steel as the grade for this line without a specific sub-grade designation.
For current pricing across both lengths, visit Yamajo Mall or see the Yamajo brand page on ScissorPedia.
