Alps Hineta

About Hineta Scissors The scissors registered under the trademark “Revitec Hineta 21” use the same soft steel material as the original Hineta and maintain the same structure, while expanding the lineup of handle shapes, blade designs, and blade lengths compared to conventional products. Additionally, we offer thinning shears with specially shaped teeth that allow for texture adjustment, and scissors and thinning shears made with Damascus layered steel that applies Japanese sword manufacturing technology. Hineta scissors have evolved from the past to the present and will continue to evolve in the future. We don’t engage in large-scale advertising or sales activities, nor do we have the staff to do so. We sell our products “quietly,” which is why they’re sometimes called “legendary scissors” known only to connoisseurs. Our small-scale operation means lower overhead costs, allowing us to offer competitive prices. Some discerning professionals recognize the quality after just a brief trial cutting, but these are scissors that become more comfortable the longer you use them, with their quality becoming increasingly apparent over time. Sometimes it’s frustrating when people don’t immediately recognize their excellence, but we absolutely refuse to focus only on making a good first impression. Our design prioritizes functionality. We don’t offer flashy decorations or colored scissors. They have a rugged “craftsman’s tool” feel. We place the highest priority on cutting hair without damaging it. Scissors with blades that don’t “give” at all may be crushing the hair. A moderate amount of give is gentler on the hair and provides a softer feel in your hand. For our thinning shears, we ensure that the “thinning rate” matches the “actual amount cut.” We achieve a balance between “good thinning,” “effective texturizing,” and “no visible cut lines.” Thinning shears that remove less hair naturally thin well, but our thinning shears thin effectively even when removing larger amounts of hair. The blades are thick, making them heavy. However, this means they won’t wear down quickly even after multiple sharpenings, so they last longer. There’s a reason some scissors are too light. Our scissors maintain their cutting edge for a long time, and the cutting feel remains consistent even after repeated sharpenings. We don’t use bearings because their benefits are minimal while their drawbacks are significant. The smoothness of opening and closing is determined by the precision of how the blades fit together. Our company is the only manufacturer that can consistently provide authentic Hineta scissors and promptly handle after-sales services (sharpening, repairs). For detailed information about Hineta scissors, please refer to our “Scissors Glossary.” We also irregularly update our “Scissor Shop Blog” with the latest information and stories that can’t be fully conveyed on the website.
