Shears and Scissors (2016x2)

Date de diffusion: Juil 04, 2016

This episode will feature a range of scissors that have evolved in Japan for use by different professionals and the beauty that they can create. Examples include fabric shears of the kind used by long-established bespoke tailors, whose blades are fashioned in the same manners as Japanese swords, as well as the shears used in traditional-style flower arrangement, which can cut both vertically and horizontally in the same way as a saw or retractable cutter. And there are also the scissors that hairdressers use to take care of almost invisible split ends.
