TONMA has been focused on scissors manufacturing for 27 years.
TONMA Japanese Dressmaker Scissors are a great mix of cutting performance and lasting durability.
Smooth, clean & fast cuts with Japan SG-2 Microcrystalline Steel blade
SG-2 powder metallurgy stainless steel (microcrystalline steel) has high hardness, strong rust resistance and good toughness. SG-2 is Japanese industrial-grade high-quality steel (HRC: 62-64). The titanium-plated microcrystalline steel blades of TONMA fabric scissors have been carefully molded and sharpened to perfection for optimal cutting to achieve perfect shearing results. Ultra-sharp, precision-ground, knife-edge blades cut to the tip, gliding easily through multiple layers of fabric.
Ergonomic grip is comfortable in your hand
The “comfort grip” handle of the TONMA sewing scissors is ergonomically designed to remain comfortable, even after long hours of use, providing the smooth, precise cuts you need without pain.
Long-lasting, dependable and reliable
Built to last through all the seasons, the TONMA dressmaker shears are a true investment in your handmade work. Both the blade and handle are resistant to corrosion and rust. Our attention to detail and quality ensure these fabric scissors will serve your needs for years to come.

I do a lot of large-scale quilting, and these 10-inch tailor shears are a total game-changer for cutting long strips and backing. The extra blade length means fewer strokes, which results in a much straighter, cleaner line. Despite their size, they’re surprisingly nimble for detail work. The precision-ground blades glide through cotton batting like it’s butter. If you’re tired of ‘choppy’ cuts from smaller scissors, upgrade to these. They’ve slashed my prep time in half and saved my hands from fatigue. Truly top-tier gear for any serious maker.

I have larger hands, and finding comfortable shears can be a struggle. The ergonomics on these 10-inchers are spot-on. The handle loops are generously sized and smoothed out, preventing those annoying pressure points during a long cutting session. They have a satisfying heft that feels secure but isn’t overly heavy. The right-handed grip is very natural, allowing for a relaxed hand position even when applying pressure. It’s rare to find large shears that feel this comfortable and intuitive. A total win for ergonomics.

As a designer, I’m obsessed with the minimalist Japanese aesthetic of these shears, but the performance is the real story. The tips are perfectly aligned, which is vital for ‘notching’ and precision clipping. They make a crisp, musical ‘snip’ that screams quality. Whether I’m draping on a form or cutting flat patterns, the SG2 steel provides a surgical finish on everything from silk to heavy canvas. They’re a masterclass in metallurgy. If you want a tool that looks as good as it cuts, these are pure money.

When you’re cutting through heavy wool or multiple layers of denim, you need serious leverage. These 10-inch Tonma tailor shears are a total powerhouse. The SG2 stainless steel is world-class; it holds an edge that puts my old carbon steel blades to shame. They have a substantial, ‘vault-tight’ feel that gives you incredible stability on long, straight runs. The weight is perfectly balanced, making the shears do the work for you. For a professional tailor, these aren’t just scissors—they’re a high-performance investment that will last a career.

Working in a costume shop means cutting everything from delicate lace to heavy upholstery fabric. These Tonma shears handle it all without flinching. The 10-inch blade gives you the reach you need for large pattern pieces, while the ‘Ultra Edge’ stays sharp through a lot of abuse. They don’t ‘fold’ the fabric at the tips, which is a common fail in cheaper large scissors. They’re rugged, reliable, and ready to rip through any project I throw at them. Definitely the MVP of my studio.
Coraline Gray –
I finally ditched my cheap craft scissors for these Tonma fabric shears, and the difference is night and day. I use them for everything from hemming curtains to making Halloween costumes for the kids. Because they’re all-stainless, I don’t have to worry about rust or the handles cracking. They’re built like a tank but handle with total grace. They stay ‘scary sharp’ even after cutting through tricky synthetics. It’s a relief to have a tool in my sewing basket that I know will perform perfectly every single time.
