YAMAJO’s company page identifies a Daegu operator and presents the brand as “Since 1991”. A separate brand notice also describes a 1991 start and hand finishing. The current store’s legal seller information is more recent; it should not be substituted for a 1991 incorporation date. This South Korea directory grouping reflects the identifiable operator and brand account, without assigning one factory to every pair.
Material source versus finished origin
The company says it imports premium raw materials from Japan and applies its own processing. That is a material-sourcing statement, not proof that the finished shears are made in Japan. The old generic cobalt/VG10/V10/ATS314 list mixed possible model grades into a universal brand specification. Read the chosen model page for its exact grade and country marking; compare the blade and service terms rather than the reputation of a material label alone.
Current selection
The YAMAJO scissors catalogue separates cutting, thinning and left-handed paths. Decide whether you need clean line cutting, weight removal or a genuine left-handed build, then check the model’s length, tooth pattern and stock. Prices are in Korean won and vary by model, so the former dollar-based tier is not useful purchasing guidance.
YAMAJO FAQ
Is YAMAJO a South Korean brand?
Its own company page names YAMAJO, gives a Daegu business address and a “Since 1991” history. The address verifies the operator location, not the factory country of every pair.
Does Japanese material mean Japan-made scissors?
No. YAMAJO says it imports premium material from Japan and applies its own processing. A selected model needs its own material and manufacture statement.
Where can I compare the current models?
The live YAMAJO store separates cutting, thinning and left-handed categories. Verify the chosen model’s grade, hand, length, stock and service terms on its product page.
