Where this sits
In Axis's cutting scissors lineup the Axis KOV Cobalt 7.0" occupies the mid-range tier, priced below the Axis SEV. Manufactured in Japan.
The Axis KOV Cobalt is a 7.0-inch cutting shear made in Japan by Axis Scissors, based in Ota City, Tokyo. The longer blade suits scissor-over-comb barbering techniques, wide-section work, and cutting through longer hair in fewer passes.
The Cobalt V10 steel provides good edge retention. The offset handle reduces wrist rotation during extended cutting sessions.
