The Sasa Blending shears are designed for exquisitely smooth wet or dry fine cutting. The teeth feature a new step-down design where the notch at the end releases the hair after cutting. The base of the teeth step-down smaller to leave more room for the uncut hair to slide smoothly through when you pull the shears out, which means less chance of pulling or snagging the hair. Forged from high carbon VG-10W Japanese steel, the convex blades have a beautiful mirror polish.
