Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Joewell Cobalt and New Cobalt?
Both use CBA-1 Cobalt Base Alloy. The Cobalt is the original model with a classic handle only. The New Cobalt offers both classic and offset handle options at a slightly lower price point.
Is cobalt steel worth the premium over Supreme Stainless?
Cobalt steel holds its edge significantly longer than standard stainless. For high-volume stylists who cut all day, the longer interval between sharpenings can justify the higher upfront cost.
