I saw a pair of these on here not long ago but don't know the title of the thread. Looking for the makers info.

Qualifying for the 6" and under club - neat!  Can't help on your question, but wanted to compliment you on your find.

Wow, those are beautiful! They look like they might be hand forged, so you might have trouble finding a manufacturer...

The makers mark looks Korean to me, though I could easily be mistaken on that one.

I think I asked about them quite a while ago, maybe on the old site.
Believe they are Ikebana snips.

Cool, thanks. Mr. Miyagi would be proud.

Had know idea the logo was oriental, just thought it was double stamped.

I'm off to trim some bonsai trees  :grin:
