Professional Opinion
Functionally this matches the standard Ichiro thinner per the file, with 30 V-teeth handling general thinning and blending. Pick it if the dragon handle makes you smile, since that is genuinely the difference.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil pivot daily
- Use a sharpener experienced with Japanese convex edges
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Dragon Thinning functionally different from other Ichiro thinners?
No. The Dragon uses the same 440C steel and 30 V-teeth as the standard Ichiro thinning scissors. The difference is purely cosmetic with the dragon-themed handle design.
