Samurai’s About page says the operation began in autumn 2006 importing and distributing Japanese-stainless hairdressing scissors. It describes Shimasu, Tora and Hasaki as newer families. The Shimasu page identifies J420 material and a student-oriented cutter/thinner group; Tora names J440 and a left-handed option; Hasaki describes Hitachi stainless for three listed cutters. Those are the seller’s family descriptions, not proof of Japanese manufacture for every pair.
Current shop versus company history
The About page says the newer families replaced Classic Pro, Fusion and Matrix in distributor channels. At the last readable check, the direct shop still listed some Classic Pro and Fusion items, so the old lines should not be described as universally retired. Compare the exact variation and current price on the shop page if researching a pair.
Check the seller before ordering
At the 23 September 2026 check, the contact page showed “EVELAND WP SHOP THEME” and a Virginia template address and phone rather than a verifiable Samurai contact. Use the family pages to research models, then confirm who will sell the pair and handle returns and service before paying. The direct shop and challenged older retailer category are not offered here as purchase links. The UK route reflects the site’s historical distribution account, not a verified current office or factory.
