The Swivel is built for the hand that never stops. A Japanese Cobalt Alloy convex edge on a rotating thumb ring that turns with your grip — so your wrist stays neutral, your elbow drops, and the strain of a long day simply melts away.
It cuts as clean as it feels comfortable: the same sharp, balanced glide you expect, with the ergonomic relief your body will thank you for at five o’clock. The scissor that lets you cut all day and feel it less tomorrow.
From Matt Grumley, Australian scissorsmith: “The Swivel is the ergonomic answer to wrist and thumb strain. Real protection for your body, with no give on the cut.”

What that means at the chair
- Swivel thumb ring — the ring rotates with your grip, so your thumb isn't locked in one position all day and your wrist stays neutral through back-to-back clients
- Japanese Cobalt Alloy convex edge — the same clean glide you'd expect from a fixed-handle scissor, no trade-off for the comfort
- 56-58 HRC hardness — the cobalt alloy is built to hold its edge on high-volume days between services
- Hand-finished and inspected at my Lake Wendouree bench before it ships — no batch passes
Who it’s not for: If your wrist and thumb feel fine at the end of a busy day, you don't need a swivel — a fixed-handle scissor will do the same job; this one's for the stylist who's already feeling the strain.
