But when tools perform like this AND make you smile every time you pick them up? That's worth eveything."

  Juntetsu Scissors Juntetsu Crane Super Offset Hair Cutting Scissors

  Features STEEL TYPE Japanese VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel HARDNESS 60-61 HRC for dependable edge retention BLADE EDGE Hand-honed convex (hamaguri) edge for clean slice cutting FINISH Satin HANDLE Crane super offset with removable finger rest TENSION SYSTEM Juntetsu ball-bearing adjustment screw SIZES 5.5", 6.0" and 6.5" HANDEDNESS Right-handed ORIGIN Japan The Juntetsu Crane Super Offset is a Japanese VG-10 hair cutting scissor with a hand-honed convex edge, a satin finish, and a crane-style super offset handle built around all-day comfort. It is available in 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5 inch sizes for right-handed cutting. Description The Crane Super Offset is designed for stylists and barbers who cut for hours at a time and want the work to stay light in the hand. Its character comes from three things working together: a lightweight balanced body, a true convex edge, and an ergonomic handle that lowers the strain of a full day of appointments. Built around the hand The crane super offset handle takes its name from the long, curved neck that carries the thumb ring lower and further forward than a standard offset. That geometry lets the thumb sit in a more natural, relaxed position, which reduces the wrist rotation and thumb spread that build up over a long shift. A removable finger rest lets you fine-tune the balance to your own grip and cutting style. VG-10 steel and a convex edge VG-10 is a Japanese high-carbon stainless steel valued for edge retention and corrosion resistance, hardened here to around 60-61 HRC. The blades are finished with a hand-honed convex (hamaguri) edge, the profile most cutting specialists prefer for clean slice and slide cutting. It moves smoothly through wet or dry hair and holds a crisp point for detail work, point cutting and blunt cutting. Smooth, stable tension The Juntetsu ball-bearing adjustment screw gives a smooth open-and-close action and holds its setting through repeated use, so the tension you set in the morning is the tension you finish the day with. Consistent tension is what keeps a convex edge cutting cleanly rather than folding or pushing hair. Choosing your size The 5.5 inch suits precision and detail work and smaller hands. The 6.0 inch is the all-round choice for most salon cutting. The 6.5 inch gives extra reach and leverage for scissor-over-comb and barbering. Frequently asked questions Is this scissor available for left-handed stylists?This model is built as a right-handed scissor. If you need a true left-handed pair, contact our team before ordering and we will let you know the current options. What hair types and techniques does it suit?It handles all hair types and is well suited to slice cutting, slide cutting, point cutting, blunt cutting and scissor-over-comb. The ergonomic handle makes it a strong choice for high-volume cutting. How do I care for a convex edge?Wipe the blades clean and dry after each client and add a drop of scissor oil at the pivot regularly. Convex edges should only be sharpened by a sharpener trained on convex blades, never on a flat-hone service. Where is it made?The Crane Super Offset is made in Japan from Japanese VG-10 steel.

  Juntetsu Scissors Juntetsu Swivel Offset Hair Cutting Scissors

  Features STEEL TYPE Japanese VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel HARDNESS 60-61 HRC for dependable edge retention BLADE EDGE Hand-honed convex (hamaguri) edge with a powerful blade profile HANDLE Rotating swivel thumb ring on an ergonomic offset TENSION SYSTEM Hand-adjustable dial, no key required FINISH Polished SIZES 5.5", 6.0" and 6.5" HANDEDNESS Right-handed ORIGIN Made in Japan The Juntetsu Swivel Offset is a Japanese VG-10 hair cutting scissor with a rotating swivel thumb ring, a hand-honed convex edge, and a hand-adjustable tension dial. It is available in 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5 inch sizes for right-handed cutting. Description The Swivel Offset is built for stylists who spend long days in the chair and want to take the load off the thumb, wrist and shoulder. The rotating thumb ring is the heart of the design, and it changes how the whole arm sits while you cut. The swivel thumb ring On a fixed handle the thumb has to follow the blade, which often pushes the elbow up and rotates the wrist over the course of a cut. The swivel thumb ring rotates freely, so the thumb stays in a neutral position while the blades change angle. That lets you keep the elbow low and the wrist straight, the posture most likely to reduce strain over a full day. It suits over-direction, palm-to-palm cutting and detailed work where the hand angle changes constantly. VG-10 steel and a convex edge VG-10 is a Japanese high-carbon stainless steel valued for edge retention and corrosion resistance, hardened here to around 60-61 HRC. The blade carries a powerful profile with a hand-honed convex (hamaguri) edge, which cuts cleanly through wet or dry hair and holds a crisp point for slice cutting, slide cutting and point cutting. Hand-adjustable tension The tension dial adjusts by hand without a key, so you can fine-tune the feel at the chair and reset it whenever it drifts. Correct tension is what keeps a convex edge cutting cleanly rather than folding or pushing hair. Choosing your size The 5.5 inch suits precision and detail work and smaller hands. The 6.0 inch is the all-round choice for most salon cutting. The 6.5 inch gives extra reach and leverage for scissor-over-comb and barbering. Frequently asked questions What is a swivel handle and who is it for?The thumb ring rotates so your thumb can stay relaxed while the blade angle changes. It suits stylists who cut for long hours or who want to keep the elbow low and the wrist neutral to reduce strain. Is this scissor available for left-handed stylists?This model is built as a right-handed scissor. If you need a true left-handed pair, contact our team before ordering and we will let you know the current options. What hair types and techniques does it suit?It handles all hair types and is well suited to slice cutting, slide cutting, point cutting and over-direction work. How do I care for a convex edge?Wipe the blades clean and dry after each client and add a drop of scissor oil at the pivot regularly. Convex edges should only be sharpened by a sharpener trained on convex blades, never on a flat-hone service. Where is it made?The Swivel Offset is made in Japan from Japanese VG-10 steel.
