Every household needs a pair of scissors so why not aspire to a pair that will last for generations and be a constant joy to use? We have gone through at least a dozen mediocre pairs of scissors at Best Made: they lose their edge, are cumbersome to handle, or have flimsy plastic handles that wouldn't pass muster at nursery school. Whether it's cutting fabrics for prototypes, threads and strings for packaging, or tissue for mock-ups, we sought a simple, ergonomic, and sturdy solution... in other words: we needed the perfect pair of scissors.

Our search ended when we found the Shozaburo scissor company in Adachi City, Tokyo. Founded by Miura Shozaburo (1896-1982), this company is dedicated to manufacturing scissors that satisfied all our requirements (and some). You'll also be glad to know that the Shozaburo Company will repair your scissors in the unlikely event they need repair (or their edge back).
