Professional Opinion
Swivel thumb and a dry-optimized convex blade in 6.0 or 7.0 inch. If your dry work runs long, the rotating thumb keeps the wrist from doing all the steering, and the convex edge keeps the stroke quiet.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot as the maker directs
- Professional sharpening recommended when cutting performance decreases
