Professional Opinion
The diamond-finish Merlin keeps things simple: a hand-crafted 440C blade at 6.0 inches, the length most stylists reach for first. That steel is forgiving to sharpen and calm about corrosion, which suits a busy salon routine. The lifetime guarantee means it can stay in your kit for the long term.
