Powder-metallurgy steel is worth understanding before you buy your next shear. Instead of casting or forging from a solid billet, PM steel is built from atomized powder, which produces extremely fine, evenly distributed carbides. The practical result: the GEO650's convex edge stays razor-keen dramatically longer than conventional stainless, so you sharpen less often and the cut feel stays consistent month after month.
The blade shape is the other half of the story. This is a sword-blade profile: a raised spine that stiffens the blade against flex, over a gently arced belly that resists pushing hair. Together they keep long perimeter lines dead straight and make blunt, point, and slide cutting feel planted—wet or dry.
Who this shear suits
Barbers and stylists who like a longer shear for scissor-over-comb, one-length work, perimeter shaping, and fast bulk removal. At 6.5", you cover more section per closing stroke without giving up tip control.
