The Balance is Juntetsu's everyday VG-10 cutting shear named for the precise pivot weight distribution that makes it feel weightless mid-cut — not the lightest blade in the range, but the one where the mass sits in the right place. VG-10 steel at the 60-62 HRC professional standard holds a clean convex edge, and the offset handle carries the Balance through full-shift work without announcing itself. Hand-finished in our Tokyo workshop across 124 steps, it's the quiet professional blade for stylists who judge a shear by how it disappears in the hand.
