Professional Opinion

A single craftsman making each scissor by hand is a different ownership experience, and you can feel the intent in the balance. At 6.0 inches with a convex edge and offset handle, it suits precision and slide cutting for stylists who value artisan work.

Maintenance Tips

  • Wipe blades after each client
  • Oil the pivot point regularly
  • Professional sharpening when edge dulls
  • Store in protective case
