Kadō Japanese Flower-Cutting Snips

Kadō Japanese Flower-Cutting Snips
£29.00
Ex Tax: £24.17

Mid weight carbon steel (meaning they can rust) flower snips, strong enough for cutting and trimming fresh and dried woody flower stems, and the traditional tool used for Ikenobo style flower arranging. Not as strong as secateurs, these are very much a flower collecting and arranging tool used for trimming and shaping light stems, and probably a bit too light for heavier duty pruning. Forged of blackened carbon steel, these can rust if not kept oiled, dry, and clean, and will stain on the exposed blades regardless. About 17cm overall length.


By purchasing this item you are confirming that you are over the age of 18, and that we may contact you prior to dispatch in order to verify this. Orders including any bladed items will incur an additional courier age verification charge and legally require delivery to persons aged 18 and over.

Care Advice

Hand wash only, and never leave soaking. Our kitchen scissors are stainless steel, but prolonged exposure to water in a moist environment may still induce rust.
