The Matte Black is an entry-level shear that doesn’t feel entry-level. The finish is matte rather than polished chrome, which hides the small scratches that are inevitable on any working pair, and the performance holds up against shears at twice the price.
Why Students and Apprentices Choose the Matte Black
- Entry-level price, professional performance — a real working shear, not a trainer
- Matte black finish — hides everyday scratches, looks distinctive in your kit
- Three sizes — 5.0”, 5.5”, and 6.0” cover most student and apprentice needs
- Matching thinning shear — 6.0” 30-tooth for a complete starter kit
Who It’s For
Students, apprentices, and stylists who want a recognisable shear without spending flagship money. The Matte Black is often someone’s first professional purchase — it is built to be cut with, not kept in a drawer.
In Use
Handles the same work as our flagship ranges: layering, blunt cutting, point cutting. The finish resists fingerprints and scratches better than polished finishes, which matters when you are learning and the shear takes a few knocks.
Care
Even entry-level shears deserve regular maintenance. Wipe after each use, oil every few months, and send in for professional sharpening when needed. See sharpening for details.
