Juntetsu VG Black Cutting & Thinning Set6.0" Cutting · 6.0" Thinning£453.70

Juntetsu VG Black Cutting & Thinning Set combines the VG Black cutting scissors with the VG Black thinning scissors. The Japan-made set uses VG-10 steel and convex edges, with a choice of cutter paired with a fixed 6.0" thinner.

Juntetsu VG Black Cutting & Thinning Set pairs a 5.5" or 6.0" cutter with a 6.0" thinner. Made in Japan, the set uses VG-10 and convex edges. For salon work, test the cutter's reach in your normal grip, then move to the thinner without changing the intended section before choosing a pairing.
  • The set combines VG-10 steel with convex edges
  • The cutter choices are 5.5" and 6.0"
  • The VG Black cutter and thinner are made in Japan
  • The thinner stays at 6.0" with either cutter

How to use

The inch label is a maker size class, not a transferable blade measurement. Overall length and pivot-to-tip length are different, so compare complete tools in the same cutting task rather than equating the numbers across models.

The convex grind has a rounded outer face and a hollow inner face behind its ride line. Check each close without forcing it: loose blade contact can fold hair, while excess pressure creates drag along that line.

Sharpening & Care

Wipe each tool after the client with a soft cloth folded into layers, moving from the pivot towards the tips. Keep fingers behind the cloth barrier; never run a bare fingertip or nail along the cutting edge to check it.

After a hard-floor drop, stop using the affected scissors and keep them closed. Inspect in strong light for an edge break, gap or twist, then close slowly and stop at any new catch. Changed sound or feel needs professional inspection even without visible damage.

A convex edge goes only to a sharpener who works convex scissor geometry on water-cooled scissor equipment, or back to the maker. Never home-hone a convex edge: a stone, a strop or a knife sharpener flattens the hollow inner face and the ride line, and once that geometry is ground away it does not come back.

Built around your grip

How this pair cuts

Edge geometry decides technique — and maintenance.

Convex 蛤刃 hamaguri-ba Razor edge for slide and wet cutting, designed for a quiet, low-resistance cut. This pair
Semi-convex Sharp yet forgiving — the versatile all-rounder, easier to maintain than full convex. This pair
Bevelled 段刃 dan-ba Durable workhorse edge with audible feedback — suits blunt cutting and training. This pair
Sword blade 剣刃 ken-ba Ridged spine adds power through thick, dry sections and scissor-over-comb work. This pair
Convex edges need specialist sharpening: a standard grind can flatten the profile. Use a sharpener experienced with convex scissor blades.
