These Hatsukokoro kitchen shears might look simple, but they’re surprisingly versatile. Made in a small Japanese workshop using AUS6 stainless steel, they’re perfect for trimming meats, snipping dried fruits, cutting herbs, shaping parchment paper—or even just cutting open packaging when they’re left lying around the kitchen (as they often are).
They come apart easily into two pieces—not just for effortless cleaning, but also for sharpening when needed. No tools, no hassle—just a smart design that snaps apart and back together smoothly.
Crafted in Seki City, a region known for its rich blade-making tradition, these shears reflect Hatsukokoro’s approach to quality and value. The name means “Innocent Spirit,” and the brand works with small and mid-sized makers to bring functional, well-made tools to everyday kitchens.
The AUS6 stainless steel resists rust and handles everyday use well, but like any good blade, it deserves a little care. Hand wash, dry right after, and store properly. Skip the dishwasher and avoid twisting or cutting through bone—treat them like a good knife, and they’ll serve you for years.
