Kokuyo Saxa Scissors

When it comes to everyday tools, an exceptional pair of scissors can be a game-changer, and the Kokuyo Saxa Titanium-Coated Blades prove this point perfectly. Your experience is spot-on—they truly redefine "best scissors ever used." I was initially drawn in by the promise of their non-stick technology and curved blade design, hoping to find a pair that wouldn't gum up with adhesive tape, and what I found was a pair of heavy-duty scissors built for a million cuts. Experience and Analysis The Saxa scissors stand out due to three key innovations: the Hybrid Arch Blade, the 3D Glueless Structure, and the Titanium Coating. The Hybrid Arch Blade is the "curved blade" feature you mentioned. It ensures the cutting angle gradually widens towards the tip. This unique geometry means that cutting tough materials like thick cardboard, multiple layers of fabric, or even thin plastic requires minimal force, maintaining a light and sharp feel from the base all the way to the tip. The 3D Glueless Structure is the core of the non-stick claim. Instead of a traditional flat blade surface, the inside of the blades is designed with subtle ridges or a minimized contact area. This prevents sticky residue from tape, glue, or stickers from building up. This feature alone makes them indispensable for crafters, students, and anyone who constantly opens taped-up packages. Finally, the Titanium Coating is what makes them "Heavy Duty." This high-hardness coating significantly increases the blades' durability and longevity, reportedly allowing them to maintain their sharpness through up to a million cuts. The overall construction is light yet sturdy, and the "Wide Fit" symmetrical handle is comfortable for long cutting sessions, accommodating both left- and right-handed users. Pros Exceptional Non-Stick Performance: The 3D Glueless Structure effectively prevents tape and adhesive residue buildup, eliminating sticky blades. Effortless Cutting Power: The curved Hybrid Arch Blade requires significantly less force to cut, making it easy to slice through thick or difficult materials from base to tip. Extreme Durability: Titanium coating ensures long-lasting sharpness and superior resistance to wear and rust, outperforming standard stainless steel blades. Comfortable & Ambidextrous Handle: The wide-fit, symmetrical handle reduces strain during extended use and works well for both left- and right-handed users. Cons Higher Price Point: They are an investment compared to typical office scissors, though their performance justifies the cost. Specialized Blade: While great for heavy use, the unique curved blade may feel slightly different than traditional straight scissors until you get used to it. Verdict The Kokuyo Saxa Non-Stick Scissors with Titanium Coating easily earn a 5-star rating. They are a genuinely superior tool that merges Japanese engineering with practical design. They are absolutely worth the price for anyone who values efficiency and a clean, effortless cut. These are best for crafters, office professionals, teachers, or anyone needing a single, reliable, heavy-duty pair of scissors that simply will not get sticky or dull.

The Japanese are as good as it gets with edged tools (yes, these are actually made in China, but the company is Japanese), and these are no exception. I have a great set of larger shears for my kitchen by another Japanese manufacturer, but their smaller units were far more expensive than I need for the light duty these will receive, so I chose these instead. The scissors look attractive (mine are the green), have a very nice feel to the large rubber loops in the handle, and are quite sharp, too. They cut smoothly and effectively, plus the blade sheath, which is a real bonus over similar others, fits easily and snugly. The paperwork with them is all Chinese or Japanese, with no English translation, just like the description here, but hey, they're just scissors, so pretty self-explanatory, right? I recommend them highly, and feel they're an excellent value at this low price.

WOW!! As a paper crafter, I am VERY impressed with the way these scissors cut. Absolutely perfect cuts every time!! Feels good in the hand; easy to use; cuts perfectly; easy to see on the table; plenty of room in the finger holes. GREAT scissors!!! Thank You!

They cut great,I love that they have a cover and they are very comfortable to use. Good value and durable, I think they will last longer than some other scissors I bought.

This is my second time buying these scissors because they are my absolute favorite. They are high quality and cut through cardboard smoothly and effortlessly.

These scissors work well enough but not great. I was trying to find a pair for multiple uses to replace a pair of fiskars that I have been using. I was looking for white scissors that were also left handed and found these. After reading about them and seeing that they come with a cover I thought I would try them. I have only had them for a short time so cannot attest to long term durability but they seem like a fairly good quality product as far as build quality goes. They feel like nice scissors. The inside of the grips are slightly soft and grippy. The blades open and close smoothly, they are fairly quiet and it is lightweight. I am not sure they are up to doing thicker material though. They do not seem as heavy duty as the fiskars pair I compared them with in the picture. I do not know about long session tape cutting usage and whether or not the tape gets stuck less or leaves less residue compared to others. But I tried these on tape, plastic, thin cardboard, cigarette filters, fabric and found mixed results. The thickness and density and finish of the material seems to effect the outcome, sometimes getting slid in between the blades as the blades flex outward and allow the material to just get smashed in the middle. I took a picture of one instance with a piece of t shirt material. I found that when cutting the fabric and cigarette filters that the material needed to be held firmly or the blades would slide off of them and not cut through at all. I tried showing this with the video. The blades are not grabbing the material for whatever reason. Some others immediately hold the piece you are cutting in between the blades due to the sharpness or texture(?) of the blades. I did find that tape still sticks to it although as said I don't know if it would be better after cutting tape all day. I also found that it is a decent handle but not specific to left or right hand and is not specially ergonomic in any way that makes it extra comfortable to hold. It is decent especially when compared to using specific right hand scissors with a left hand. But I may prefer a pair that shaped more for a left hand specifically. I also found that it does not cut quite as well with the left hand. Something about the way the blades move and the force your hands apply is different fore at least and I have had mixed results with the left hand cutting. I think that they are a comparably priced pair of scissors especially since they have a cover. It fits well enough by the way. Slides on and off smoothly and seems like it will last for a while. Side note, it does cut a straight line, if the material does not slide away.

切れ味がとても良くリピートしています 家のあちこちに置いています

Excellent product! Will buy again.

14年前に購入した同じグルーレス刃のP210、長年使ってきたが先日、指を入れるハンドルのジョイント部分が割れたので買い替えることにした。 フッ素、チタンコートと迷ったが刃やハンドルの色が暗めのトーンなのでコーティングなしの水色にした。見慣れた、どこにでもありそうな青色の事務用ハサミ。 並べて比較：P210(左)、P280B(今回)。新たに刃を保護する鞘が付属。 刃やハンドルのサイズは14年前のものとほぼ同じ。今回のハンドルはプラ素材だが、表面にうっすら半透明のラバーが被せてあり、指を通してもひんやりせず、すべりにくく、それでいてなめらかな肌触り。目立たないが着実な進化が感じられる。 刃は見慣れたグルーレス刃、段差がついていてテープの粘着剤が付着しにくい。粘着テープや粘着剤のついた封筒を切るのに便利。もし付着してもコーティングされていないので遠慮なく、消毒用アルコールでクリーニングできる。 刃の動きはほどよい重さがあってスムーズでブレにくく、狙った通りに切れる。 前回のはラバーとプラをつなぐジョイントの経年劣化で破損したが、今回のはラバーもジョイントも使用していないのでより耐久性が高いと思われる。大敵は紫外線、日当たりの良い部屋で浴びる日差しによるプラの脆化だけ。 (とはいえ、10年以上使えたのだから十分すぎるほどの耐久性。) 総ステンレスのハサミには及ばないものの、500円で買えるハサミとしては破格の切れ味と耐久性。

切れ味もよく先端部分は細かいところも切れます！

An excellent and very comfortable pencil for writing, even though sometimes I find myself pressing the button to release the lead, because the pencil does not release enough lead by itself.
