Precision Shears’ Aikyo cutting category and thinning category list named models. On 24 September 2026, both categories displayed some order controls alongside sold-out models, so check the selected pair’s current availability. These listings identify seller models, not a maker or the origin of every pair. The seller’s SKL70 page refers to Japan in its body and Korea in a specification. The South Korea directory section is a starting point for browsing, not evidence of where the shears were made.
The retailer catalogue shows model-specific material descriptions, including different steel labels. A named alloy on one seller page does not certify another model, nor does alloy alone determine finished edge behaviour. Obtain the exact model code, blade length, tooth count if thinning, grip and current maker specification.
Use the exact cutting or thinning category to find a model, then ask the seller for the manufacturer, country-of-origin marking on the actual unit, authorised service contact, returns and warranty issuer. If comparing another shop, check that it lists the exact Aikyo model and can accept an order. A US distributor address does not make Aikyo US-made; the Korean directory grouping does not prove Korean brand origin. Ask for maker documentation before treating either origin as confirmed.
The checked seller category says Korea, while its SKL70 page contains both Japan and Korea statements. Request maker documentation for the exact model.
The available seller listings do not establish who makes Aikyo or whether Nina Inc is the manufacturer. Ask for a maker-owned source for the selected model.
No. Seller listings vary by model. Confirm the alloy, hand fit and maintenance terms on the exact shear and ask who can substantiate its origin.
