Professional Opinion

The crescent-shaped blade drops a few degrees toward the hair, which makes point cutting and slicing feel natural without forcing the wrist. Freehand texture work is a comfortable fit too. ATS-314 cobalt alloy keeps the edge dependable, and the sculpted handle fills the hand nicely.

Maintenance Tips

  • Wipe blades after each client
  • Oil pivot regularly
  • Professional sharpening recommended when edge dulls
  • Store in protective case when not in use
