About

About the HHPL Pai Mei

Like a high-end sports car, the Hattori Hanzo HHPL Pai Mei will outperform almost every other shear on the market. Blends of cast or forged steels make up the composition of most shears. However, we utilize advanced production techniques in the creation of the Pai Mei. We construct each HHPL from condensed micro-particles of nano powder steel. The result is a scissor of unparalleled strength and cutting ability. The unique design of the Pai Mei boasts a nearly flat thumb blade with a rounded spine, combined with a curved cutting blade carrying a classic 800mm radius, creating a shear of extreme versatility and capability. Ideal for perimeter lines and bobs, the Pai Mei will cut a perfectly straight line through even the densest sections–saving the stylist precious time on every haircut.

I noticed instantly! I can tell the quality of these shears is top tier. I cut a whole ponytail (medium/coarse) in one cut. Thanks again guys! Will be purchasing again in the future. Happy New Years!

In 26 years I have never seen a shear cut like this. I'm a Vidal Sassoon hair designer to the death. Clean sections are vital. The fact that I can now make my section with more density is liberating. Joe is the best. He is more educated than half of the stylists I've educated. lol. Great guy. Understanding. And will only recommend what he is passionate about. It's very clear in his approach. This is my 5th HH. He just ordered the saw that looks like a Jewlery box and I am pumped. Anyone that has anything to say about the quality of the shares needs to stop having that man in his van parked outside of the salon drilling away at them calling it a Sharpening. that's the beauty of the Hanzo shears. They only need to be sharpened maybe twice in one year my new ones only need to be sharpened once every two the minute that you give the shears to a regular regular SCISSORS sharpener, it's a wrap , it's worth the investment it's our tool and catalyst so we can hone in on our craft yourself your clients and your time of service and try these shears out
