Where this sits
In CNC's thinning scissors lineup the CNC 9CR13 Left-Hand Thinning Shear occupies the mid-range tier.
The CNC 9CR13 Left-Hand Thinning Shear is a dedicated left-hand build — the blades are ground for left-hand grip and the handle is configured accordingly. It uses 9CR13 stainless steel with a published 25-30% thinning rate. CNC machines its blades rather than hand-grinding them, a process the brand applies across all steel grades.
9CR13 is the entry-tier steel in the CNC range. The VG10 thinning shear is the top-tier equivalent.

Professional Opinion
A true left-hand grind rather than a flipped right-handed shear. Blades and opposing handle are configured for left-hand cutting from the start, and a stated 25-30 percent thinning rate gives predictable removal for blending work.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades clean after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in a protective case
