Looking back, the production of scissors in Zhang Xiaoquan has a history of more than 340 years, and it became famous in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Zhang Xiaoquan's father, Zhang Sijia, studied in Wuhu, which is famous for its "three knives", and later opened a Zhang Dalong "scissors shop" near Yixian. Zhang Sijia works hard, and his polished scissors are tough and sharp, which is highly praised by people. Under the careful teaching of his father and his constant practice, Koizumi also learned the good craft of making scissors with one hand. When the Qing soldiers entered the customs, his father and son fled to Hangzhou, and opened the "Zhang Dalong" scissors workshop in Dajing Lane at the foot of Wu Shan, studying casting skills seriously. Scissors are made of "inlaid steel" technology. First, use pig iron to forge scissors, choose Zhejiang Longquan and Yun He Iron and Steel, and carefully polish Zhenjiang specialty clay with extremely delicate texture, so that scissors are as bright as new, and business is particularly prosperous. Following in his father's footsteps, Zhang Xiaoquan is located in Qinghefang area and is the commercial center of Hang Cheng, so its business is booming and its profit is ten times. 1663 (the second year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty), Zhang Dalong changed his signboard to his own name "Zhang Xiaoquan" in order to prevent others from selling scissors under his signboard.

It is said that when Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty went down to the south of the Yangtze River to Hangzhou for the second time, he disguised himself, mingled with pilgrims and strolled up the mountain for sightseeing. Just when the mood is strong, the weather is not beautiful. Suddenly it began to rain, so I had to go down the mountain to find shelter. In a hurry, I walked into a workshop with the signboard of "Ancestral Zhang Xiaoquan Scissors". Qianlong was curious and took a pair of scissors. Seeing the cold light flashing and extremely sharp, he bought one and brought it back to the palace. He likes this pair of scissors very much. They are used as scissors in the palace. Since then, Zhang Xiaoquan Scissors has gained a great reputation. At most, 86 scissors were made with the brand of "Zhang Xiaoquan", and there was a grand occasion of "the green hills reflected blue lagoon and Koizumi filled the streets".

When 1909 (Xuantongyuan year) was introduced to Zhang Zuying, this cutting technique had been spread in Hangzhou for eight generations. He took "Haiyun Bath Day" as a trademark, sent it to the magistrate's office, and reported it to the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce for registration. The word "spring is near" was added to the trademark. 19 15, Zhang Xiaoquan's scissors won the prize at the Panama World Expo recently, and they have been exported to Southeast Asia, Europe and America since then. On average, this shop sells more than 10,000 scissors of various sizes every month. 19 17 Zhang Zuying changed the surface treatment of scissors to polishing and nickel plating, which was more popular with customers. At that time, there were more than 80 masters, apprentices and shop assistants. 1926 won the silver medal in the Philadelphia World Expo.

While the development of Zhang Xiaoquan was booming, the Japanese invaders occupied Hangzhou. Although Zhang Xiaoquan scissors are far ahead in the scissors industry, they are still losing heavily and on the verge of bankruptcy. After the founding of New China, Zhang Xiaoquan scissors maintained its traditional characteristics and further improved its technology, output and quality. Zhang Xiaoquan Scissors Factory was established in 1957, and has now developed into the largest scissors manufacturer in China.

In 2000, the whole enterprise in Zhang Xiaoquan was transformed into a limited liability company with diversified investors, which injected vitality into the development of Zhang Xiaoquan. The enterprise successfully passed the restructuring and established Hangzhou Zhang Xiaoquan Group Co., Ltd., which took a decisive step towards the modern enterprise system.
