Professional Opinion
Okamiya's WP AT series keeps things simple: one stainless cobalt alloy build with an offset handle and convex edge, your only decision being 6.0 or 6.5 inches. A convex edge in cobalt alloy is a combination many stylists pick for smooth, low-effort cutting.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot point regularly
- Professional sharpening when edge dulls
- Store in protective case
