🇯🇵 Limited Stock from Japan
A small number of models are currently on pre-order while new shipments make their way from Japan. Pre-order now to secure yours when stock arrives.
Next Shipment: Mid–Late August 2026
✅
Warehouse operational — orders shipping daily.
The vast majority of our range is in stock and dispatching as normal. Only the models listed below are temporarily unavailable, due to extended manufacturing lead times from Japanese specialty steel producers. New stock is confirmed and on its way.
Why the wait? Japanese scissor manufacturers use specialty steel alloys (VG10, ATS-314, Cobalt) that require precision heat treatment and hand-finishing processes. Combined with increased global demand for authentic Japanese-made professional tools, production lead times have extended this season. Every pair is worth the wait.

Common Questions
When will I be charged for a pre-order?
Pre-orders are charged at the time of placing the order. This secures your place in the queue and locks in the current price. If you change your mind before dispatch, we'll issue a full refund.
I already have a pre-order — what's the status?
We've contacted all customers with existing pre-orders individually. If you haven't heard from us, please email
support@japanscissors.com.au with your order number and we'll give you a specific update.
Can I cancel my pre-order?
Yes — you can cancel anytime before your order is dispatched for a full refund. Just email us with your order number.
Will prices change when new stock arrives?
Due to rising costs from Japanese manufacturers, prices may increase on select models. Pre-ordering now locks in the current listed price.
The model I want doesn't show a pre-order option?
Not all models have pre-ordering enabled on the product page. Email us at
support@japanscissors.com.au with the model, size and your details — we'll manually reserve it for you.
