Kasho Sagano Series Black DLC 5.5in Offset Scissor

Built for stylists who take their cutting tools seriously, the Kasho Sagano Series Black DLC 5.5" Offset Scissor is properly premium kit. Kasho is one of the most respected scissor makers in the world, and the Sagano range sits at the top end of their offering with hand-finished detail you can feel in every section.

The Black DLC coating: harder wearing and antibacterial

DLC stands for Diamond-Like Carbon, and it's one of the hardest coatings available for cutting tools. It dramatically increases the wear resistance of the blade, which means the sharpness holds for longer between services and the scissor stays at its best for longer in your hand. Just as importantly, the DLC surface is completely non-porous, so bacteria can't enter the steel. That's a genuine hygiene win in a busy salon environment, and it makes the scissor easier to keep properly clean between clients.

Damascus ball bearing with Flat Screw Technology

The cutting motion is where Kasho really pulls ahead. The Damascus ball bearing system delivers that famously smooth, almost silky glide through the hair that the Sagano range is known for, and the integrated Flat Screw Technology lets you fine-tune the tension precisely to your hand. The beautifully inlaid flat screw is also the design centrepiece of the scissor, sitting flush in the body for a clean profile that hints at the engineering underneath.

Ergonomic camel back and offset handle

The camel back blade and offset handle work together to keep your hand, wrist and shoulder in a natural position while you cut. If you're behind the chair all day, the difference an offset handle makes to fatigue is significant. The shape encourages a relaxed thumb position and reduces the strain that comes with traditional symmetric scissor designs, which over a career adds up to a lot of saved tension.
