Description
The thinning version of Ohka's Stegosaurus line, a 6-inch brushed-finish texturizer offered in a 21-tooth and a 23-tooth pattern.
Where this sits
In Ohka's thinning scissors lineup the Ohka Stegosaurus SMV (21) occupies the mid-range tier, priced between the Ohka Amida AM Thinning and the Ohka Delight LK (30W). Manufactured in Taiwan.
Tooth patterns in this series
The Stegosaurus thinner comes in two 6-inch patterns at the same price:
| Version | Teeth | Volume reduction |
|---|---|---|
| Stegosaurus SMV (21) | 21 | Approx. 35% |
| Stegosaurus STV (23) | 23 | Approx. 30% |
Both share a brushed finish; the higher tooth count leaves slightly more hair behind for softer texturizing.

Professional Opinion
Two tooth patterns share one 6-inch body in this series: the 21-tooth SMV removes about 35 percent per close, the 23-tooth STV about 30 percent. Pick the 21 for more visible texture, or the 23 when you want a softer blended finish.
