Akitz Korea sells cutters, thinners and left-handed shears from Incheon; the older A-Tech company date is not a scissor-line founding date.
Akitz Korea has a live Incheon shop with cutting, thinning and left-handed categories; A-Tech’s 1996 history describes the company, not every Akitz model.

Akitz Korea’s current company page identifies an Incheon operator, and its hair-scissor catalogue includes cutting, thinning and left-handed categories. The older A-Tech/Suntachi account gives the same Incheon industrial address and says A-Tech was established in 1996. That company date does not establish when every Akitz model or line began. The names are connected through the operator’s family-site links and address; their exact corporate relationship should not be reduced to an unsupported parent label.
Start with whether you need a cutter, a thinning pair or a true left-handed build. The live catalogue separates those groups and shows distinct model names and prices in Korean won. Its changing category listings are more useful for selection than the earlier generic “mid-range” label. Confirm the chosen pair’s length, tooth pattern, hand and availability before ordering.
A-Tech’s company account describes Japanese Hitachi 440C and an approximate 59.5 hardness for its scissors. This is a company statement, not a specification for every current Akitz listing. The Incheon business address likewise does not establish the factory country of each model. Ask for the model’s own steel and origin marking when either is decisive. The South Korea directory groups the verified operator location, not a universal manufacturing claim.
Akitz Korea’s current shop identifies an Incheon company and publishes hair-scissor categories. The related A-Tech/Suntachi company account also gives an Incheon address; neither address proves that every pair was forged there.
The 1996 date appears in A-Tech’s company history. It should not be assigned as the launch year of each Akitz scissor line without a separate brand record.
The Akitz Korea store lists cutting, thinning and left-handed categories. Check the chosen product page for blade material, origin, hand, length and current stock instead of using a range-wide 440C or hardness claim.
