- Is this shear really made for left-handed cutters?
- Yes. It is built in a left-hand orientation, so the blade and finger rest are set for a left hand rather than flipped from a right-hand shear.
- What is a convex edge and why does it matter?
- A convex edge is rounded and honed rather than flat-beveled. It slices through hair with less drag, which suits slide cutting and point cutting, but it needs a sharpener who knows convex blades.
- What comes in the set?
- It is sold as a set, so expect the 5.5-inch shear plus the companion piece Kamisori pairs with it, typically a thinner. Check the listing for the exact contents.
- Can I use it for blunt cuts as well as texturizing?
- Yes. The 5.5-inch length and convex edge handle overall cuts, blunt lines and advanced techniques, which is why it is aimed at professionals.
- How does it compare with the original Diablo?
- The Diablo II keeps the convex edge and left-hand build of the line with updated engraving and finish. If you already own the original, the cutting feel is close, so upgrade mainly for the refreshed design.
- Do I need to sharpen it often?
- With daily salon use, plan on professional sharpening roughly every six to twelve months, sooner if cuts start pulling. Use a reputable convex-edge sharpener.
