Yangjiang, the Capital of Knives and Scissors in China, Stainlesss Steel Scissors Manufacturing Factory for Global B2B Buyers
July 27, 2026

Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province, China, is located on the southwest coast of Guangdong Province. The city has a land area of 7966.8 square kilometers, a sea area of 12300 square kilometers, and a coastline of 466.82 kilometers. On this land backed by mountains and facing the sea, a distinctive and advantageous industry known throughout China and even the world has emerged – hardware knives and scissors.
Yangjiang’s hardware knives and scissors products have long formed a local characteristic industry, although they are not prominent in Guangdong, a star studded economic province. However, the generations of hardworking and persistent Yangjiang knives and scissors craftsmen have accumulated profound technical knowledge and talent foundation for the prosperity of the modern knife and scissors industry.
Yangjiang is backed by the Pearl River Delta where the largest manufacturing base in China and even the world is. Upstream stainless steel smelting and alloy material research and development, midstream mechanical manufacturing, mold casting, and spare parts supply have complete industrial supporting facilities in both the Pearl River Delta and Yangjiang. This “front store, back factory” geographical pattern enables Yangjiang to fully absorb the industrial spillover and talent radiation from the Pearl River Delta, while also enjoying relatively low land and labor costs in western Guangdong, forming an enviable dual advantage of cost and efficiency. Yangjiang is adjacent to Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Goods depart from Yangjiang at night and arrive at Huangpu Port in Guangzhou or Yantian Port in Shenzhen the next morning.
Today, Yangjiang has gathered over 8500 hardware knife and shear market operators, with more than 2000 production enterprises and approximately 200000 employees. The production of knives and scissors accounts for about 75% of China’s total output, and the export volume accounts for about 85% of China’s total output. From upstream stainless steel smelting and alloy material research and development, to midstream’s machinery manufacturing of knives & scissors, spare parts production, heat treatment, electroplating, and downstream product packaging, e-commerce, logistics and distribution, Yangjiang has built the most complete industry chain of knives & scissors in China and even the world.
Yangjiang has successively acquired three national center signs: “China Kitchen Knife Center”, “China Scissors Center”, and “China Small Knife Center”. Many well-known brands of knives and scissors around the world have OEM factories in Yangjiang, including the well-known German brand ” ZWILLING”.
If you are a scissors purchaser and tired of inconsistent quality and delayed deliveries from scattered suppliers, it’s time to consider connecting with Yangjiang’s scissors manufacturers.
