TADAKUNI

Tadakuni Scissors Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a long-established beauty scissors manufacturer founded in 1953 Our History Thank you for visiting our sales website. Tadakuni Scissors Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has been manufacturing and selling professional beauty scissors since its founding in 1953. My grandfather, the founder, was originally a craftsman who made carpentry tools such as chisels and planes. The scissors business began when he once accepted subcontract work to make scissor bodies, but when the client went bankrupt, he received scissor manufacturing tools as payment instead. Later, under my father’s leadership as the second generation, we worked on manufacturing products for many different companies and brands. Now, as the third generation, I have launched our own brand for sale. Tadakuni Scissors are manufactured at “Tadakuni Scissors Manufacturing Co., Ltd.” in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture. Our workshop is located near the sea in Tokoname City, which is also home to Chubu International Airport “Centrair,” the gateway to Aichi Prefecture. The city is famous for “Tokoname pottery.” Throughout the city, there are not only workshops but also facilities related to ceramics, making it a town with many craftsmen. Scissors are completed through many manufacturing processes. We handle all processes from design to manufacturing and packaging in-house. Each craftsman is responsible for their specific part of the manufacturing process. There are many steps in scissors manufacturing. First, we cut out parts using “CAD design” and “wire-cut electrical discharge machining,” which precisely cuts metal by passing an electric current through brass wire. The blade material undergoes precision grinding with diamond whetstones, honed to an accuracy of 0.05mm. The finishing process is called “gap adjustment.” The gap between the blades needed for scissors to “cut” is at most just 0.1mm. This adjustment is done entirely by hand. “It’s a repeated process of looking and hammering. How to make these adjustments is where a craftsman demonstrates their skill. This adjustment determines the sharpness and performance.” Please welcome our scissors as your trusted partner. Until now, our company has focused on OEM production for other brands, but we have now launched our own brand exclusively for online sales. The brand logo features “TIII,” symbolizing that I, the third-generation Tadakuni, take responsibility for manufacturing. We offer various handle sizes to accommodate different finger sizes for both men and women. While we provide general size information, we’ve also created a free trial scissors program for those who need to try them first. “We know our scissors better than anyone else.” We’re building a sales system centered on maintenance so our customers can use our products for a long time. We want to continue making scissors that grow as our customers use them. Yukio Isomura, Third-generation Tadakuni, Tadakuni Scissors Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
