Japanese Short Thread Snips for Sewing – Oxidized Laminated Steel 5”
A little larger in the hand but still made for close thread trimming, these 5-inch Japanese thread snips are a practical choice for sewing, embroidery, quilting, and handwork.
The 1.77-inch short blade keeps the cutting point close to the work, while the 5-inch overall length gives your hand a little more room than the compact 4-inch version.
The laminated construction is part of what makes this pair interesting. Blade steel forms the cutting edge, with softer iron behind it for resilience — two materials doing different jobs within the same traditional tool.
A dark oxidized finish gives the steel a restrained, traditional appearance.
For makers who like the control of a short blade but prefer a little more tool in the hand, this 5-inch format offers a comfortable middle ground.
Made in Japan.
