Left-handed highlights

Reversed blade configuration made specifically for left-handed cutting, with large handles and long blades for comfortable use on bigger materials.

A note from HIDARI

A lot of left-handed scissors are small or basic, so we like having a proper large pair in the lineup. The generous handles feel comfortable in bigger hands, and the longer blades make everyday cutting jobs noticeably easier.

Long blades and roomy handles for left-handed cutting.

Made by Hayashi Cutlery in Seki, Japan, these ALLEX scissors give you a generous grip and a longer blade for everyday cutting. At 20 cm (7.9 in.) long, with 9.5 cm (3.7 in.) blades, they're well suited to cutting wrapping paper, clipping newspapers and magazines, opening packaging and making crafts.

Medium or Large? Start with the fit.

The Large has an elongated lower handle with more room for your fingers. Choose it if you have larger hands or thicker fingers, or prefer longer blades for cutting wider sheets of paper. For a more compact pair with two round finger holes, see the ALLEX Medium scissors — 16.5 cm (6.5 in.).

Polished steel, a softer grip

The flowing stainless steel shape continues from the blades into the handles, with carefully polished curves. Green elastomer rings soften the contact with your fingers, while the 3.0 mm-thick stainless steel is rust-resistant and durable.
