Fuji MoreZ Scissors | Handmade Japanese precision
Fuji MoreZ: the gold standard
Every Fuji MoreZ pair is hand-built in Osaka by smiths whose families forged katana steel. The result? Scissors that glide like butter, keep their edge through brutal schedules, and arrive with 15 years of factory sharpening plus lifetime manufacturing cover—all tracked in ScissorPedia so future refresh cycles know their history.

Why invest in Fuji
- Edge longevity: Powder steels hold an edge far longer than VG10 or ATS314, so you sharpen less often.
- Self-polishing ride line: Each close micro-hones the edge, keeping the glide consistent between services.
- Ergonomic perfection: Handle geometry is tuned pair-by-pair; you feel the difference the second you pick them up.
- Future-proof support: Fuji tracks every pair; send them back annually and they return with factory-perfect alignment (ScissorPedia has the factory form ready to download).
Care rituals
- Wipe clean, disinfect, and oil after every client—premium cobalt still corrodes if left wet.
- Check tension weekly using the Fuji key; the blade should close two thirds with a gentle drop.
- Store in the supplied maple box or a padded roll. Do not let those tips touch anything else.
- Ship to the authorised Fuji service centre when the edge loses glide or after any significant knock.
