DAMASCO Special One Scissors – Extreme precision and VG10 steel for exceptional grooming
Advantages of DAMASCO scissors
The DAMASCO scissors embody the pinnacle of precision, design, and durability, intended for the most demanding professional groomers. Forged from Japanese VG10 steel, one of the most prestigious steels used in high-end cutting instruments, these scissors offer exceptional edge retention, high corrosion resistance, and outstanding durability.
Their thinner-than-average blade, combined with a Japanese concave sharpening, ensures remarkable lightness in the hand, considerably reducing fatigue during long cutting sessions. The ergonomic offset handle helps prevent musculoskeletal disorders, particularly carpal tunnel syndrome, by promoting a natural and comfortable hand position. Finally, their design, adorned with a subtle Damascus pattern, a true artisanal signature, gives these scissors unique visual elegance, worthy of a true work of art.
Using DAMASCO scissors for grooming
DAMASCO scissors were specially designed for precision cuts on fine, wavy, or curly hair, particularly for dogs with textured coats such as Poodles, Cockers, Bichons, or Lagotto Romagnolos. Their optimized balance and fine blade make them perfect for clean finishes, facial contours, paws, rounded shapes, and any other area requiring millimeter-perfect work.
They are available in two sizes (8" and 8.5") to suit the groomer’s preferences or the coat’s requirements. As an option, artisanal micro-serrations can be added to provide better grip on slippery or very fine hair, ensuring absolute control of every movement. A decorative adjustable tension screw allows fine customization of the tension, while a silent system ensures acoustic comfort during work.

Additional Questions and Answers

A: It offers exceptional cutting-edge retention, increased resistance to wear and corrosion, and unmatched sharpening fineness. It is one of the best steels used in professional cutting scissors.
