Brand Overview

Fuji MoreZ sits in the upper echelon of Japanese handcrafted shears, blending traditional forging with modern ergonomics. Blades are forged in small batches, then paired with precision bearings to maintain travel smoothness under salon workloads. Because each pair is tuned by hand, tension holds longer and ride lines stay consistent—even after repeated factory sharpenings.

Product Lines & Flagship Series

Fuji Original Series

• Core convex blades with VG-10 cobalt blends.
• Classic offset handles tuned for all-round cutting.
• Packed with Carved Convex® edges for effortless slide work.

Fuji FX Series

• Swivel thumb handles to alleviate wrist tension.
• Available in 5.5–6.3” lengths with matching thinners.
• Ideal for stylists performing high-volume point and slide cutting.

Fuji Damascus & Royal Collections

• Layered Damascus steels with decorative finishes and enhanced edge longevity.
• Crane handles balance weight toward the pivot for reduced fatigue.
• Targeted at collectors and editorial stylists seeking both performance and aesthetic impact.

Fuji Texturizers & Blenders

• Tooth counts from 14 to 40 for weight removal and finishing.
• Matched to cutting shears so balance and tension feel familiar across the toolkit.

Buying Guidance

• Technique match: Choose Classic or FX lines for daily salon work; Damascus/Royal for specialized creative cutting; dedicated blenders for finishing.
• Steel maintenance: Higher cobalt content extends time between sharpenings but requires a convex specialist—budget for factory service or vetted sharpeners.
• Handle selection: Try swivel or crane handles if you experience wrist compression; Fuji offers multiple ergonomics within each series.
• Regional availability: Authorized distributors in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK provide serialized shears and warranty registration.

Fuji vs Similar Brands

• Hikari: Shares a focus on buttery convex action. Hikari leans toward softer closes, while Fuji emphasizes bearing-assisted smoothness.
• Mizutani: Offers broader alloy experimentation (Nano Powder Metal) and bolder designs. Fuji prizes traditional convex feel with customizable handles.
• Yasaka: More affordable ATS-314 convex shears with less customization—solid mid-tier option but without Fuji’s bearing systems or Damascus lines.

Where to Buy

• Fuji MoreZ authorized distributors (Fuji Scissors USA, Fuji Canada, Fuji Australia) supply serialized shears, custom engraving, and refurbishment scheduling.
• Trusted partners in our network—JapanScissors.com.au and JPSC—maintain direct relationships with Fuji’s factories.

Always request proof of authenticity, warranty registration forms, and service documentation when purchasing premium Fuji MoreZ shears.
