Juntetsu VG Black Thinning Shears

• Features

The Juntetsu VG Black Thinning Shear is a 6.0 inch Japanese VG-10 thinning shear with a 30-tooth blade, a matte black multi-layer coating, and an offset handle with a finger brace. It is built for right-handed weight removal and blending.

• Description

The VG Black Thinning Scissor is the blending and weight-removal partner to the VG Black range, sharing the same stealth matte black finish. It is made for stylists and barbers who want to reduce bulk and soften weight while keeping a clean, low-key look at the chair.

What the 30-tooth blade does

With 30 teeth, this is a general-purpose thinner. It removes a moderate amount of hair with each pass, more than a high-count finishing texturizer, which makes it a versatile choice for reducing weight, blending sections and softening bulk through the mid-lengths and ends. Work in stages and check as you go to control how much you take out.

VG-10 steel and a convex cutting 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 solid blade carries a hand-honed convex edge that meets the toothed blade cleanly, so hair is caught and released smoothly without pushing or bending.

Matte black finish and offset handle

The multi-layer matte black coating is engineered to resist chipping and hold its matte look through a long working life. The offset handle, with its finger brace and removable finger inserts, lets the thumb sit low and relaxed and lets you fine-tune the fit, which helps reduce strain over a long shift. The tension adjusts by hand without a key.

• Frequently asked questions

How much hair does a 30-tooth thinner remove?
A 30-tooth blade removes a moderate amount per pass, more than a high-count finishing texturizer. It is a versatile general thinner for reducing weight and blending. Build the effect up with repeat passes rather than taking too much in one.

What is it best used for?
Reducing bulk and weight, blending between sections, and softening density through the mid-lengths and ends.

How do I care for the coated finish?
Wipe the blades clean and dry after each client and add a drop of shear oil at the pivot regularly. Avoid abrasive cleaners so the matte coating keeps its finish.
