Where this sits
In ICON Shears's cutting scissors lineup the ICON ICT-164 Lightweight Point Cutting Crane Shear occupies the premium tier, priced below the ICON ICT-125 Multi-Color Titanium Swivel Shear. It uses 440C.
The ICON ICT-164 is a 5.5-inch chrome titanium crane-handle shear with a lightweight build and a semi-convex edge suited to point-cutting. The crane handle drops the thumb ring below the finger loop, allowing the arm to sit lower during overhead passes. The lightweight construction reduces hand fatigue across a full working day.
The blade is built on 440C Japanese stainless steel. A one-year blade and edge warranty with unlimited sharpening, plus a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, applies. For current stock and purchasing, visit the ICON Shears brand page on ScissorPedia.

Professional Opinion
The ICT-164 pairs a crane handle with a lighter build, aimed at point-cutting detail. The 5.5 inch semi-convex blade in 440C still handles general work, so it suits stylists who want crane ergonomics without extra weight in the hand.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades clean after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in a protective case
