About this shear

The VG10 Ergo Barber is built for barbers running long shifts of over-comb cutting and men's work — a barber-length VG-10 shear with a deep ergonomic offset handle tuned to minimize thumb strain on extended cuts. VG-10 steel holds its edge through the heavier cutting patterns of barbering, and the ergonomic handle angle compensates for the forward reach of the longer blade. Every pair is materials-checked by our scissor specialists and hand-inspected at our Saitama facility in Japan before it ships. The Ergo Barber is the Juntetsu shear for the professional who spends their day at the barber chair.

Questions

What makes the Juntetsu VG10 Ergo Barber different from the standard VG10 Offset?

The Ergo Barber has a deeper ergonomic offset angle and starts at 6.0 inches, targeting barbers who need reduced thumb strain during prolonged scissor-over-comb work.

Is VG-10 steel suitable for barbering?

Yes. VG-10 at 60-62 HRC holds a sharp convex edge well and is widely used in professional Japanese barbering scissors. It offers a good balance of sharpness and durability.
