Professional Opinion
Fifteen teeth on VG-10 make this the heavy worker of the Premium Series, built for texturizing and bulk removal at 6.0 inches. The polished black coating adds scratch resistance, the VG-10 core holds an edge longer than the 440C models in the range, and the offset handle keeps the grip relaxed through big sections.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil pivot daily
- Use a sharpener experienced with Japanese convex edges
