{"product_id":"japanese-thread-snips-sewing-forged-steel-6-green","title":"Japanese Thread Snips for Sewing – Forged Steel 6” – Green","description":"\u003cp\u003eGreen is not a color you often see on traditional Japanese thread snips. Add a substantial 6-inch size and around four decades of unused storage, and this becomes a particularly unusual sewing tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 150mm overall length is much larger than the compact snips commonly seen today. With a 2.76-inch blade, the tool has more presence in the hand while keeping the simple spring-style form of Japanese nigiri scissors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese snips are made from forged steel and were produced to work. Sewing, embroidery, quilting, and detailed handwork all involve the repeated thread trimming they were made to handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir age and color may catch the eye first, but the fact that they remain unused is part of what makes them interesting. This is an older Japanese tool that can still take its place at the sewing table rather than being treated only as a collectible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor makers who enjoy Japanese sewing tools with history and character, the combination of 150mm size, green finish, forged steel, and new old stock condition is difficult to encounter in ordinary modern selections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition Note: This is new old stock that has remained unused for around four decades or more.
