Professional Opinion
Thirty-one teeth on a 5.8 inch thinner puts this in everyday blending territory, and the miniature bearing gives the opening and closing a light feel. The Hennessy handle carries a Karakusa pattern, so it looks the part in a refined kit.
Maintenance Tips
- Brush hair from teeth after each use
- Oil pivot regularly
