Pointed Blade Snipping Scissors - M170

Precision is a love language.

Meet the Hidehisa Pointed Blade Snipping Scissors—though among those who truly know, they go by the name “Pointy.” If you’re the kind of gardener who finds deep, meditative joy in the perfect deadhead or the surgical thinning of a fruit cluster, these were forged specifically for your brand of obsession.

Hand-forged by master craftsmen in Japan, these aren’t your average garden-variety snips. Crafted from high-grade carbon steel, they strike that rare balance between delicate finesse and forged strength. While lighter scissors might shy away from anything tougher than a petal, Pointy is built to handle the business of the garden without losing its edge.

The design is intentionally slender. Professional gardeners often keep them tucked right in the palm of their hand while working, allowing for a seamless transition between hand-thinning and precision snipping. With elongated blades that can reach cleanly through dense foliage or past protective thorns, no bud is out of reach.

Hand-forged in Japan

Usage & Etiquette:
Japanese steel is notoriously hard and exceptionally sharp. To keep Pointy in peak condition, avoid the cardinal sins of cutting wire, metal, stone, or plastic. When approaching a stem, cut diagonally to follow the fibres, and always use the base of the blades for your heavier work rather than the tips.
