Saki 6.0" Powder Metal Cutting Shears Hammered Handle

A short shear rewards a steady hand — and this Saki 6.0" powder metal shear is built to keep that hand steady. The compact sword-profile blade carries a raised spine for rigidity, a straight belly for crisp one-length lines, and a tapered tip that stays exactly where you point it: fringe work, interior point cutting, detail around the ear.

The steel is the real education here. Powder-metallurgy (PM) steel is made from atomized powder pressed into an ultra-uniform structure, so its carbides are fine and evenly distributed. The practical result: a convex edge that takes a razor keenness and holds it far longer than conventional cast or forged stainless, stretching the time between sharpenings.

What sets it apart

• Powder-metallurgy steel: ultra-uniform carbide structure for a razor-keen convex edge with exceptional edge life
• Compact sword blade: raised spine for stiffness, straight belly and tapered tip for precision bobs and controlled point and slide cutting without push
• 6.0" working length: nimble in tight spaces, yet enough blade for scissor-over-comb and fast refinement
• Hammered offset handle: subtle facets improve grip; the open thumb and sculpted tang encourage a neutral wrist for all-day comfort
• Micro-adjust tension dial: quick, precise tuning to keep the action smooth

Who it suits

Stylists who want a shorter, well-balanced shear for precision lines, fringe detailing, and tight scissor-over-comb — with PM-steel edge life that outlasts standard stainless.

The blade should roughly match your middle finger; the whole shear, your palm. 6.0" is the all-round choice; 6.5"–7.0" for scissor-over-comb and barbering. Shear Size Guide — find your length in 30 seconds.
