Crafted from premium Japanese stainless steel and finished by hand in Seki, Japan, these scissors offer a sharp, precise cut for everyday office, home, or school tasks. The green elastomer resin rings provide a comfortable, non-slip grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy left-handed scissors?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard scissors are designed for right-handed use, forcing lefties to twist their hand awkwardly to see the cut line. ALLEX left-handed scissors have reversed blades that place the top blade on the left, allowing a natural cutting motion and a clear line of sight. This design delivers smoother cuts and better control, especially for detailed work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBuild and materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blades are machined from Japanese stainless steel, known for its hardness and edge retention. Skilled craftsmen in Seki – a city famous for blade-making – hand-sharpen each pair to ensure exceptional sharpness out of the box. The seamless one-piece construction from handle to blade adds durability and a clean, modern look. The soft elastomer resin rings are molded into the steel handles, so they stay securely in place and provide a comfortable, non-slip grip even during long cutting sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications at a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.5 inches (16.5 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.68 inches (6.8 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8 oz (51 g)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade material\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJapanese stainless steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRing material\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElastomer resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGreen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand orientation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeft-handed only\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeki, Japan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon questions about these left-handed scissors\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan a right-handed person use these scissors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese scissors are designed exclusively for left-handed use.
