Where this sits
In Yamajo's thinning scissors lineup the Yamajo Cobalt Step Cut Plus Thinning Scissors occupies the entry-level tier, priced below the Yamajo VG10 Bearing Masterway Thinning Scissors. Manufactured in South Korea.
The Yamajo Cobalt Step Cut Plus Thinning scissor carries a 30-tooth blade — the count Yamajo publishes for this model. At 30 teeth the scissor removes a moderate-to-heavy proportion of hair per pass, suiting bulk reduction and blending in medium to thick hair. Cobalt steel is the published grade for the Step Cut Plus line, consistent with the cutting model it pairs with.
Yamajo has produced scissors in Daegu, South Korea since 1991. The offset handle matches the geometry of the Step Cut Plus cutting scissor for a consistent hand position across a paired set.
