Razor Edge
Hasn't every stylist examined a straight edge razor and then expressed, wow, this blade is unbelievably sharp. Then abruptly asked why their scissors couldn't have an edge comparable to this. Sam Phillips, the owner of Lightning Sharp and Inazuma Scissors thought so as well and developed a scissors blade to mimic the straight edge razor.
​
With a few ingenious modifications that allowed a razor’s edge to synchronize with an opposing scissors blade, it became a reality. That sounds simple enough, but the process took years of experimental blades to adapt this concept to become a haircutting scissor.
​
It became the time to verify the worthiness of the razor edge scissors. Would an industry with thousands of different blades accept one more?
​
With a prototype to demonstrate his invention, Sam flies 6500 miles to discover the truth.
His plan is to join forces with the best scissors manufacturer in the world, Adachi Industries, Seiki, Japan, to pursue the recognition of his distinctive blade.
This is where he met Adrian Schlemmer, a leading scissors designer. Together, they improved the Razor Scissor so it could be manufactured with the highest quality Powder Steel.
The success was twofold, the finest steel to construct the blade, but also to have it accepted and produced at the world-renowned Adachi factory.
It has been a few years since the first Razor Scissors were introduced and it has proven to have an impressive reputation for precision. It’s ultra-thin edge slices through every type of hair with the ease that you would expect from an actual straight edge razor.

These scissors are necessary for the stylist who has a high expectation of their cutting technique.
