Professional Opinion
The crane curve on the CR drops the thumb side further than a standard offset. Lightweight ATS-314 cobalt blades in 5.0 to 6.5 inches keep it aimed at precision and point cutting.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil pivot regularly
- Professional sharpening recommended when edge dulls
- Store in protective case when not in use
