SUMMARY
For professional tailoring, dressmaking and garment alterations, the Diawood High-Class Gold 240 mm scissors offer a compact choice within the Gold series for cutting fabric at the worktable. The blades combine the specified materials of stainless 18Cr and Hitachi SLD, a tool steel known for wear resistance, with distinctive brass handles and a melamine finish.
Why Choose Diawood Gold?
Based in Sanjo, Niigata, Japan, a city with a long tradition of blacksmithing and metalworking, Diawood brings a connection to Japanese toolmaking to your sewing toolkit. The Gold series pairs its blade materials with distinctive gold-colored brass handles for those who value both materials and appearance in their tailoring tools.
FEATURES
-
Hitachi SLD: Wear-Resistant Tool Steel
SLD is a high-carbon, high-chromium tool steel equivalent to the SKD-11 grade, known for its wear resistance. Resistance to wear is a useful material characteristic for scissors used repeatedly at the cutting table, giving you a reason to look beyond overall size when selecting your tailoring tools. -
18Cr Stainless Steel: Corrosion Resistance
The 18Cr stainless steel brings corrosion resistance to the blade-material specification. This complements SLD's wear-resistant characteristics: resistance to rust and resistance to cutting-edge wear serve different purposes. Clean and dry the scissors after use as part of regular care. -
Brass Handles with a Melamine Finish
The handles are brass, not simply steel handles described by their gold color. Brass gives the Gold series its characteristic appearance, while the melamine finish provides a surface coating. This material-and-finish combination distinguishes it from the Black series' black-coated forged handles. -
240 mm Overall Length
The shortest of the four Gold sizes listed below, for users who prefer a more compact pair of fabric scissors. This is the overall length, not the blade length.
