If your day mixes blunt baselines with point-cut detailing, this is built for exactly that. The 45-degree convex edge and strengthened tip in Takefu VG-10 cobalt take detailed tip work without babying the blades.

Maintenance Tips

  • Wipe blades after each client
  • Oil pivot daily
  • Use a sharpener experienced with Japanese convex edges
