Where this sits
In Exclusive Shears's cutting scissors lineup the Exclusive Shears Barberian occupies the mid-range tier, priced between the Exclusive Shears BEAM-60 and the Exclusive Shears Delta Swivel. It uses VG-10.
The Barberian is a barbering-focused cutting shear from Exclusive Shears, a Melbourne-based Australian brand. Blades are ground from Japanese VG-10 cobalt steel, giving the edge sharper initial bite and greater hardness than standard VG-1.
The sword blade profile delivers a longer, tapered cutting edge suited to scissor-over-comb and point cutting. The full offset handle and ergo thumb ring keep the wrist in a low-fatigue position during fading and blending work. Available in 6.5” and 6.75”.
For current pricing and availability, see the Exclusive Shears brand page.

Professional Opinion
