Professional Opinion
The MC5 follows the MC-series pattern: offset handle, convex edge, South Korean build, in 5.5 and 6.0 inch options. It suits the daily rhythm of a working stylist or barber, and the convex edge rewards anyone who likes a clean, quiet slice through the section.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades clean after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
