Description
A 440C sculpting thinning line with a symmetrical handle, offered in two tooth counts for lighter or heavier hair removal.
Where this sits
In Artero's thinning scissors lineup the Artero Alp Thinning Shears occupies the mid-range tier, priced above the Artero Back Intense Thinning Shears. It uses 440C, a Japan pro workhorse stainless with a working hardness of 58–60 HRC. Manufactured in Spain.
Tooth-count options in this series
The Alp thinner is offered in two tooth counts, sharing the same 440C steel and symmetrical handle. Choose based on how much hair you want to remove per pass:
| Version | Teeth | Approx. price |
|---|---|---|
| Alp 29T | 29 | $264 |
| Alp 43D | 43 | $319 |
A higher tooth count removes a finer amount of hair with each pass for softer blending, while a lower tooth count clears more hair at once.
Features
- 440C Steel
- Symmetrical handle
- Available in 29-tooth and 43-tooth versions
