ONTAKIPremium Hand-Forged Mustache & Beard Scissors 5.5" - Japanese Steel Barber Scissors - Bangs & Grooming Shears - Rest Hook Silver - Hair Shears - Beard Sheers

These are very good scissors -- large enough that they're easy to hold and use and long enough to make it easy to trim straight. They are adjustable, but work very good right out of the box.

Materials used are really nice. The screw you have to tighten the blades together is just *chefs kiss*. It works on a detent system I think. So every micro turn is locked into place. This allows you to fine tune them to perfection and when you're happy they don't move. They cut flawlessly all the way to the tip. They feel great in the hand, they are really sharp, and the blades came aligned perfectly. To give an example, you can cut single ply tissue paper the full length of the blade cleanly, with one cut. That's pretty good. A lot of scissors like this would allow the paper to slip between the blades either at the bottom near the handle, or at the tip. Not these little guys. Good price makes it a five star product for me.

Had to replace my old pair and decided to upgrade. Good decision. Sharp as ... well ... a precision engineered and crafted scissors. Just the right size for that delicate trim around the edges of the lip, but handle with care, they are sharp.

They seem nice and sharp. I've only used them once. They came with some residue and not sure if that's an indication they were used.

Very good quality! Scissors are extremely sharp and are smooth as glass!

These scissors are perfect for trimming my beard and mustache. They are slightly shorter and less pointy than traditional barbers sheers that would be used for hair on the top of the head which makes it much easier to wield myself for trimming my facial hair. Having a finger rest instead of just the finger holes made a noticeable improvement in control that I didn't expect. The finger inserts also make them quite comfortable to use. Perhaps if you had particularly girthy fingers you would need to take them out or struggle with the finger holes, however, I don't have a problem and I don'y think many would. For reference, my wedding band is a size 12 and I have no problem fitting my fingers in the finger holes.The adjustable screw is a great feature that lets you adjust the pressure between the thumb and finger blades so that they never get loose resulting in tugging or a less than perfect slice. These are sharp out of the box and cut beautifully. I haven't had a single hair get caught or tugged it always just shears right through every hair giving a crisp line where I want it. As for maintenance, so far I have just made sure to keep them dry (I also don't store them in the bathroom since I need to replace the exhaust fan and it gets quite humid after showers, etc.). I may oil the ride and screw assembly at some point but they are still as smooth as they were when they come out of the box several months ago. If you are looking for a quality set of shears at a fair price, these are for you.

Good price very sharp and easy to use

I have been cutting my hair and trimming my beard for almost 29 years. My previous pair of scissors lasted 8 years of constant use, and I look forward to this new pair filling in the next 8 years. They are sharp looking in black, with precise cutting and positive feedback to my hand and fingers (thanks to the rubber ring inserts and post for pinky finger leverage). Well worth the money.
