Where this sits
In Infinity's thinning scissors lineup the Infinity Barracuda Thinning occupies the entry-level tier, priced between the Infinity Cutlass Thinning and the Infinity Eagle Thinning.
The Infinity Barracuda Thinning is a mid-range thinning shear in the Infinity catalogue, priced at £130 through Scissors Craft. The toothed blade removes weight from hair without a visible reduction in length — used to reduce bulk in thick sections, soften blunt cut lines, and blend graduation. It pairs with the Barracuda Cutting shear at the same price point.
At £130, the Barracuda Thinning occupies the same price tier as the Rapier Thinning and the Piranha cutting shear, all mid-range options in the Infinity range above the entry-level Academy (£40).
