Yasaka 7.0 Inch Barber Cutting Scissors
by Yasaka · Cutting Scissors
What it is
A regional Yasaka barber cutter listed by Scissor Hub as 7-inch CUTTING, with ATS314 steel and a semi-offset handle. Its listing links to the maker's Cutting model, not SK-7.0; confirm the supplied version before ordering.
Available sizes
Where to buy
Inherited April 2026 USD catalog estimate; original seller, market and exact variant were not recorded. Not a current offer or a newly observed local quote.
Where this sits
In Yasaka's cutting scissors lineup the Yasaka 7.0 Inch Barber Cutting Scissors occupies the mid-range band, priced below the Yasaka Traditional Cutting Scissors.
Identify the pair before comparing specifications
The Scissor Hub listing calls this pair 7-inch CUTTING and links directly to Yasaka’s Cutting model. That is the documented regional-to-maker link used here, not proof that every retailer’s “Yasaka Barber”, “No. 7” or “D7” name is interchangeable.
The maker separates these two products:
| Maker model | Full length | Blade length | Screw specification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cutting | 172 mm | 82 mm | Dedicated Type 80 flat screw; cannot be converted to adjustable |
| SK-7.0 | 178 mm | 85 mm | Adjustable Screw L; maker also lists a flat-screw option |
These are maker-published dimensions, not ScissorPedia measurements. Confirm the supplied model, handed configuration and permitted trial with the seller before comparing reach or buying replacement parts. The existing photo illustrates the regional catalog listing; it does not verify dimensions, alloy or origin.
Evidence and buying boundary
The displayed steel is supported by the cited maker and retailer pages; the handle, blade and finish wording is attributed to the retailer. Hardness, weight, thermal treatment, precise manufacture, current availability and cutting-performance benefits are not established by this check.
Only the retailer with an explicit link to the cited maker model remains in this record’s purchase cards. This is an evidence boundary, not an endorsement or a claim that it is the only authorized seller. Nine older seller routes are retained in the source record for later matching, not presented as equivalent offers. That includes a 7.5-inch Shear World route and a YOI listing with different finish wording. Use the brand’s buying directory for a wider regional search, then confirm the exact pair.
9 September 2026 correction: removed the unsupported YS-7BARBER model code, origin, hardness, weight, treatment, production-status and performance claims. The historical USD246 guide was not refreshed or converted into a current local quote. This was a targeted identity/specification correction, not a full review of the Yasaka range.
For the most current model specifications, handle options, pricing, and availability, see the Yasaka brand page on ScissorPedia.

Professional Opinion
Use this example to compare blade reach with your present cutter and comb. Establish the maker model first: the regional 7-inch name does not make Cutting and SK-7.0 interchangeable, or establish better control, speed or edge life.
Maintenance Tips
- Follow the identified model's cleaning and lubrication instructions
- Confirm the dedicated screw type before ordering parts or attempting adjustment
- Ask a suitable service provider to identify the model before sharpening
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the regional Yasaka 7-inch Barber the same as SK-7.0?
Do not assume so. The cited Scissor Hub listing identifies CUTTING and links to Yasaka's Cutting page. SK-7.0 has a separate maker page with different dimensions and screw options. Ask the seller to confirm the exact supplied model.
Is the seven-inch label the cutting-edge length?
No. Keep the regional nominal size separate from the maker's full-length and blade-length measurements. Compare the identified model's blade reach with your comb rather than treating seven inches as the measured cutting edge.
Can I fit an adjustable tension screw to Yasaka Cutting?
Yasaka specifies a dedicated Type 80 flat screw for Cutting and says it cannot be changed to an adjustable screw. Do not transfer SK-7.0's selectable screw arrangement to this model. Confirm the model before ordering service parts.
Are the hardness, weight and manufacture verified for this record?
No. The selected sources support a material specification and the stated model distinctions, not this record's former hardness, weight, heat-treatment or precise-origin claims. Those claims have been removed; this is not an independent cutting or material test.
