Professional Opinion
Hollow-ground 440C blades give the GX a light, smooth action for texturizing and point cutting, and it still handles scissor-over-comb duty. The dovetail finger rest adds a steady contact point, with four sizes from 5.0 to 6.5 inches.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil pivot regularly
- Professional sharpening recommended when edge dulls
- Store in protective case when not in use
