Professional Opinion
The adjustable thumb ring is the real story here, letting a stylist fine-tune hand position instead of adapting to a fixed grip. VG-10 cobalt with a convex edge suits working stylists who want one shear covering most daily cutting in 5.5 or 6.0 inch.
Maintenance Tips
- Wipe blades after each client
- Oil the pivot as the maker directs
- Professional sharpening recommended when cutting performance decreases
