Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Yasaka SK Long different from the Yasaka 7.0 Barber?
The SK Long offers both 6.0 and 7.0 inch options and is designed with a long blade profile that differs from the standard barber model. It targets both stylists and barbers rather than barbering exclusively.
Is the 6.0 inch SK Long still considered a long blade?
Yes. The SK Long 6.0 has a longer blade-to-handle ratio than a standard 6.0 inch scissor, giving more cutting surface relative to overall length.
