Built for control and speed, this 6" shear combines a compact sword-profile blade with a sculpted, hammered-texture handle for confident grip and precise finger placement. The shorter length keeps the tip exactly where you want it for fringe work, interior point cutting, and detail around the ear—while the reinforced spine adds stiffness so each close is clean and predictable.
Powder-metallurgy steel: ultra-uniform carbides create a razor-keen convex edge that stays sharp far longer than conventional cast/forged stainless, reducing downtime between sharpenings.
Compact sword blade: raised spine for rigidity; straight belly and tapered tip for crisp one-lengths, precision bobs, and controlled point/slide cutting without push.
6" working length: nimble in tight spaces yet substantial enough for scissor-over-comb and fast refinement.
Hammered, offset handle: subtle facets improve grip; open thumb and sculpted tang promote a neutral wrist for all-day comfort.
Micro-adjust tension dial: quick tuning to keep the action smooth and responsive.
Stylists who want a shorter, balanced shear for precision lines, fringe detailing, and tight scissor-over-comb—with PM steel edge life that lasts.

Saki 6.0" Powder Metal Cutting Shears Hammered Handle
Product Selection
Typically, women find scissors in the 5.5” to 6.0" range to be the most comfortable for their needs, whereas men often opt for slightly larger shears, favoring sizes between 6.0” and 6.5”. For tasks such as scissor over comb techniques and cutting longer hair styles, longer scissors, ranging from 6.5” to 7”, are recommended. However, the key consideration should always be comfort, ensuring the scissors feel right in your hand and match your cutting style and technique.
We take pride in crafting our hair shears from only premium grade stainless steel, including 440C, VG-10, ATS-314, ZA-18, and Damascus. These high-grade materials ensure each pair of shears is razor-sharp, durable, and built to last. For your convenience, the specific type of steel used in each set of shears is detailed on the product's detail page. This commitment to quality means our shears not only meet but exceed professional standards, providing you with precision tools for every cut.
