The Apex is the scissor you stop thinking about — because it just works, all day, every day. A Japanese ATS-314 convex edge set for effortless glide, so the first cut of the morning and the last before close feel identical. No fade, no fight.
Pick it up and the balance sits back into your palm — less wrist by five o’clock, more clean cuts before fatigue ever creeps in. The everyday scissor that earns its place in your hand.
From Matt Grumley, Australian scissorsmith: “The Apex is the one I reach for when I just want to cut. Reliable, balanced, sharp — the everyday weapon.”

What that means at the chair
- ATS-314 convex edge, 58-60 HRC — the first cut of the morning and the last before close feel the same. No fade, no fight
- Offset ergonomic handle — your thumb and wrist stop doing all the work on back-to-back days
- Single bearing flat pivot — smooth, consistent tension you set once and forget about
- Three lengths (5.5″, 6.0″, 6.5″) — pick the one that matches your hand and how you section, not a one-size compromise
Who it’s not for: If you're mostly after a dedicated texturising or thinning tool rather than an all-day cutting all-rounder, the Apex isn't the pair for that job.
