(About the "Shinogi")
"Shinogi" is a shape that has been applied to Japanese swords since ancient times. It refers to the ridge line (the high, mountain-like part with corners) that runs along the blade between the "blade" and the "back of the sword".
The reason for making "Shinogi" with bonsai scissors is that one side (the side without the blade) must be sharpened to make "Shinogi".
By sharpening it, the tip of the blade becomes thinner, making it easier to work in small areas.
If you look at the comparison image of "With Shinogi "and "Withought Shinogi ", you can see that "Scissors A" does not have "Shinogi" and "Scissors B" has "Shinogi". This makes the blade thinner.
