SUMMARY
For professional tailoring, dressmaking and garment alterations, the Diawood High-Class Black 240 mm scissors offer a compact option for cutting fabric at the worktable. The blades use stainless steel 18Cr and Hitachi SKD-11, paired with forged handles with a black-coated finish. At approximately 220 g, this model is a choice for users who prefer a smaller pair than the 260 mm Black.
Why Choose Diawood High-Class Black?
Made in Sanjo, Niigata, Japan, by Diawood, a specialist scissors manufacturer. Diawood's techniques draw on the region's long-standing Echigo Sanjo blacksmithing tradition. Choose High-Class Black for lasting cutting performance, a solid feel and resistance to rust.
FEATURES
-
SKD-11 Tool Steel: Wear Resistance for the Cutting Edge
Hitachi SKD-11 is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel known for its wear resistance. For a fabric-cutting tool, resistance to wear is a useful material characteristic when choosing scissors for repeated cutting work. -
18Cr Stainless Steel: Corrosion Resistance
The 18Cr stainless steel adds a corrosion-resistant material to the blade specification, while SKD-11 brings wear resistance. These are different properties: resistance to rust and resistance to cutting-edge wear are not the same thing. Keep the scissors clean and dry; stainless steel does not mean rust-proof. -
Black-Coated Forged Handles
The forged handles have a black-coated finish, offering a different handle construction and appearance from the Gold series with its brass handles and melamine finish. Choose the handle style you prefer alongside the blade materials and overall size. -
240 mm Overall Length, Approximately 220 g
The smaller of the two Black sizes listed below, for users who prefer compact fabric scissors at the worktable. The 240 mm measurement is the overall length, not the blade length.
