The Axis Series 8" Straight Shear is designed around alignment—of hand, blade, and intention. This series represents a refined evolution in performance, comfort, and material integrity for professionals who demand precision without compromise.
Forged from Japanese Takefu steel, known for its fine grain structure, edge stability, and exceptionally smooth sharpening response, this shear delivers a clean, controlled cut with outstanding longevity. A full convex edge ensures effortless performance while allowing true premium craft sharpening, preserving blade geometry throughout the life of the tool.
An enhanced ergonomic handle design promotes natural hand positioning, reducing strain on the wrist, thumb, and forearm during extended use. Balanced weight distribution and a precision nylon glide system provide consistently smooth action and controlled tension.
Intentional sigil markings remain a defining element of the series. The primary marking, Cho Ku Rei, is traditionally associated with safety, focus, and completeness—serving here as a visual anchor for presence and clarity while working. Etched on the interior blade is Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen, a symbol often used to represent continuity across past, present, and future, and the idea that care and intention extend beyond the immediate moment.
The sigils themselves do not create effects on their own; they represent intention. Designed by a professional sharpener and Holy Fire Reiki Master, the Axis Series is built as a conduit for precision, confidence, and care—supporting both the quality of your work and the way it feels to perform it.
Fully serviceable and supported by our in-house premium craft sharpening, the Axis Series Shear is engineered for alignment, longevity, and refined control.
