Some scissors do one thing. The Jada does whatever the chair throws at it. Japanese Cobalt Alloy, hand-finished and tensioned to glide — a scissor that feels as comfortable on a precision graduation as it does on a long barber stroke. Pick it up and your hand just knows what to do.
This is the scissor that follows your day. Switch from a soft salon layer to a tight barber taper without ever reaching for a different tool — the Jada keeps the same balanced feel, the same clean glide, the same quiet confidence in your fingers. Cobalt Alloy holds its edge through a full book of clients and still feels effortless at five o'clock.
It looks the part too. Choose your screw colour and make it yours — from understated Black, Silver and Pearl through to Blue, Indigo, Pink and Magenta, or a flash of Black, Blue, Pink or Red Diamante to catch the light on every cut. A scissor your client notices and your hand never wants to put down.
A scissor this versatile doesn't belong to a "type" — it belongs to whoever wants a single tool that simply keeps up.
"The Jada is the one I reach for when I don't want to think about my scissors — I want to think about the cut. It moves with you. Salon, barber, short or long, it just works." — Matt Grumley, Australian scissorsmith.
Every Jada includes:
- Your Jada scissor in 5.5", 6.0", 6.5" or 7.0" — your choice of screw colour, from Black, Blue, Indigo, Pearl, Silver, Pink and Magenta to Black, Blue, Pink and Red Diamante
- Hand-finished, tensioned and edge-set at Matt's Lake Wendouree bench, and inspected by Matt before it ships
- A presentation case to protect your investment

What that means at the chair
- Offset Ergonomic handle — your thumb stops doing all the work, so the last client of the day feels like the first
- Cobalt Alloy at 56-58 HRC — the edge holds through a full book of clients between services instead of fading mid-week
- Single Bearing Flat pivot — the tension stays where I set it, so the glide doesn't wander as the weeks go by
- Four lengths from 5.5" to 7" — short enough for detail work, long enough for a proper barber stroke, and we'll help you pick the one that fits your hand
Who it’s not for: If you want a scissor tuned to one specialty — a dedicated texturiser or a long-blade volume workhorse — the Jada's whole point is doing everything well rather than one thing only, so look at a specialist tool instead.
