Professional Opinion
Detail cutters will notice the dual bearing arrangement first. It lets the blades close with very little thumb pressure, which matters when you are doing fine, precise work all day. The 5.5 inch length keeps it nimble around the hairline and ears.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil pivot daily
- Professional sharpening recommended when edge dulls
- Store in protective case when not in use
