How to Choose
- Steel & Edge: Higher-grade alloys (e.g., Japanese cobalt or Level 3) hold edges longer and cut smoother.
- Curve & Length: Deeper curves shape faster; 7–8" for control, 8–9"+ for speed on larger arcs.
- Handle & Ergonomics: Even or offset handles reduce strain; look for tension dials and rounded tips for safety.
- Kits vs Singles: Kits bundle key sizes/blenders at value pricing for a complete station setup.

FAQs
Yes—use the middle of the blade and lighter pressure. For long straight work, a straight shear is faster.
Convex edges slice smoothly for finish work; beveled edges add bite and durability. Many pros keep one of each.
When you feel push, snagging, or a drop in finish quality despite cleaning and tensioning. Protect tips—most damage comes from drops.
