Th Z1 is produced with the sharpest cutting angle in the Mizutani line. A ” hybrid shear ” is one that can be used for dry cutting just as well as a wet cutting. The Z1 is at the top of its class when it comes to this; meaning it performs channel cutting, dry stroke cutting, and cutting blunt lines carving out the perimeter with ease. This shear comes out top 3 at demos and shear consultation appointments nationwide. It is our best ” all in one ” shear.
The latest high-tech development in scissor production uses Nano Powder (extremely small particles) and powder metallurgy to produce scissors of unprecedented strength and sharpness. While other companies claim to use ” powder ” or ” Nano Powder Metal “, it is important to ask questions such as ” where is your metal researched ” where is it sourced ” and confirm the validity of these claims. Mizutani has and always will be committed to quality over anything. You can find the information pertaining to the research it has taken as well as what Nano Powder Metal® is and is not here.
Design Note: The Z1 has a flatter blade ( compared to the Z2 ) when looking at it from the side, yet comes to a fine point when looking at it from the top. Additionally, the blade is curved for a seamless dry cutting experience.
