Nigiri Basami - Long Blade

Product Description Detailed Specs Measurements Nigiri basami are often used for sewing and general craft/household tasks. They are unique in that they have the spring action built into the handle. In use, they are held near the top area (where the blade is) and operated like tweezers. The craftsman for this line of nigiri basami is one of the very few in the world who still handcraft nigiri basami with traditional Japanese methods by hand. This includes welding the soft and hard steels by hand (he does not use pre-clad steel sheets) and free-hand forging the shape of the blades and handles without the use of large-scale/automatic machinery. This handcrafting allows very small but important adjustments to the shape, positioning of blades, and bounciness/tightness of the grip. These scissors are made with high carbon steel. Like all carbon steel tools/knives, they can rust if not cared for properly. Please make sure to wipe them clean and dry after use. If you're planning on storing
