CHIKAMASA T-552 7-Inch Carbon Steel Trimming Scissors

Designed for gardeners, florists, and home DIY enthusiasts alike, the CHIKAMASA T-552 7" Trimming Scissors bring together Japanese craftsmanship and modern ergonomic engineering. Each pair features 48 mm straight blades forged from superior-grade Japanese high-carbon steel. This material is prized for its balance of hardness and flexibility, resulting in blades that maintain razor-sharp edges even after hundreds of precise cuts.

Blade Excellence
The 48 mm cutting edges deliver clean, burr-free trims on live stems, deadheading flowers, or shearing tender new shoots. In side-by-side tests against conventional scissors, the T-552 consistently produced smoother cuts with 20 % less hand pressure, reducing cell damage in delicate plant tissue.

Ergonomic Innovation
A spring‑open mechanism keeps the blades ready for rapid successive cuts, while a safety lock band secures the blades closed during storage. The soft plastic coated handles feature a contoured profile that fits comfortably in hands of all sizes, cutting down on fatigue during extended pruning sessions. At only 105 g (0.23 lb), these shears feel weightless yet controlled.

Durable Construction
Crafted with a non‑slip coating and corrosion‑resistant steel, the T-552 withstands daily exposure to moisture and sap. No more worry about rust or handle degradation—the resilient finish ensures long-term reliability season after season.

Versatile Use
Beyond garden tasks like trimming roses and shaping bonsai, these multi‑use scissors excel at floral arrangements, indoor plant care, and even craft or kitchen chores requiring fine cuts. Their slim blades fit into tight corners, giving you pinpoint accuracy in any application.

Easy Maintenance
Simply wipe blades clean after each use and lightly oil the pivot joint monthly to maintain optimal performance. When not in use, engage the safety lock to protect both your fingers and the blade edges.

Elevate your pruning experience with the CHIKAMASA T-552. Its blend of Japanese steel quality, ergonomic comfort, and precision cutting makes it an indispensable tool for anyone seeking professional results in garden and craft projects.
