I bought the Saki Precision Haircutting Shears and I am absolutely in love with these shears. I used them for the first time today at work and was absolutely blown away by how effortlessly these shears cut any type of hair and how straight and smoothly these shears cut. These shears are very comfortable to cut with, they are very well balanced and they cut so cleanly. I also really like that the tang is integrated with the shears as opposed to the types that screw on, so I don’t have to worry about the tang coming loose during a service and getting lost. I’ve always heard great things about cutting shears that are crafted from Japanese steel and I can tell you that these shears are absolutely amazing. I am very happy with my decision to buy these shears and I will definitely be buying some Saki thinning shears as well as some Saki 6 inch shears to add to my tool kit in the near future. I also liked that the shears arrived within two days of ordering them, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that they came with a very nice leather case that will hold two pair of shears. In any event, I highly recommend these shears to anyone of any experience level. You will not be disappointed at all.
