Mataeda Hasami - Concave Cutters
An essential tool for bonsai refinement, Mataeda Hasami—commonly known as concave cutters—are designed to remove branches cleanly and with intention. The curved, concave jaws leave a slight indentation at the cut site, allowing the wound to heal smoothly and with minimal scarring—critical for maintaining the natural taper and flow of a refined bonsai silhouette.
The name Mataeda (又枝) translates to "forked branch," reflecting the tool’s purpose in removing secondary or crossing branches with precision. These cutters are hand-forged in Japan from high-carbon steel, offering superior sharpness, control, and longevity.
A must-have for bonsai practitioners at every level, Mataeda Hasami make structural pruning cleaner, healthier, and more aesthetically refined.
