Unlike regular "X-shaped" scissors, these traditional U-shaped snips (also known as spring scissors) are made from a single bent piece of steel – no finger holes, just a gentle press to cut.

Popular in Japan since ancient times, they were originally used for kimono making and are still crafted and used today – especially for precise tasks like undoing seams or trimming threads.

Smooth, light, and easy to use – perfect for delicate, detailed cutting.

Also available with longer blade - Japanese Thread Scissors with long blade
