Description

The Hattori Hanzo HH88 Eighty-Eights series are an outstanding choice in shears for both wet and dry cutting. We craft the HH88 from a specialized high-carbon Japanese stainless steel, and this line features four shear lengths, dual removable tangs, straight handles, and a tried-and-true zero-offset ring configuration. And while the offset may be zero, the finger positioning for the HH88 series is still highly ergonomic, with a distinctively molded ring shape for much more comfortable finger placement. Cutters who are Vidal Sassoon trained will immediately recognize its style and feel right at home with this shear. The Eighty-Eights are classic haircutting shears “with a twist” that you simply have to try for yourself.

Countersunk Locking Tension Control

Countersunk locking tension control enables stylists and barbers to readily adjust and control the amount of tension or tightness between the blades of the shears. This feature is important for maintaining the performance and longevity of the scissor, as well as ensuring clean and efficient cuts. It allows users to tailor the tool's performance to specific cutting tasks and materials.
