Professional Opinion
At 4.5 inches this is very much a detail tool. Fringes, around the ears, necklines, anywhere you are cutting right up close. The classic even handle keeps the grip symmetrical and familiar, and the convex edge in Japanese steel finishes the cut cleanly.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
