Professional Opinion

If you favour a shorter blade, this 5.5 inch offset is built around that preference. The ice-hardened Solingen steel carries a convex edge that suits detail and precision work, and the compact length gives close control around the hairline, ears, and fringe.

Maintenance Tips

  • Wipe blades after each client
  • Oil pivot daily
  • Use a professional sharpener experienced with German convex edges
