Notice Regarding Specification Changes to Snap Hook Hardware and Future Actions
Although we reported this on Facebook earlier, we have received several reports of breakage regarding the "snap hook hardware" used in BLINK SCISSORS CASE scissor cases and leather bags.
Therefore, we will discontinue the use of the conventional snap hooks for all products and will progressively switch to new hardware going forward.
The conventional snap hooks were also made by a domestic manufacturer, and there was no issue with their quality; they could be used as is.
However, this time, we had the opportunity to encounter hardware from a more reliable domestic manufacturer, and we will be renewing to hardware that has been upgraded in both design and material.
About the New Hardware
The hardware we are adopting this time is a top-grade snap hook with real gold plating.
It boasts higher durability and beauty, and its specifications further enhance the quality of the product.

Understanding Snap Hook Hardware
Even with the new hardware, wear and tear may occur depending on the usage environment and friction conditions.
Due to its structure with a rotating axis, snap hooks may gradually wear down due to metal-on-metal friction, especially in environments where they are used for long periods, such as in salon work.
Therefore, we appreciate your understanding that snap hooks are "consumable parts."
Future Initiatives
At BLINK SCISSORS CASE, we continuously pursue quality that is trusted as a professional tool.
We will continue our efforts to improve quality so that we can deliver products that you can use comfortably and with peace of mind.
