FAQ - Kasho Millennium Series 6.5" Offset Shear DLC MODEL

Q: What is the Kasho Millennium Series 6.5" Offset Shear DLC MODEL?
A: The Kasho Millennium Series 6.5" Offset Shear DLC MODEL is a limited edition professional hairdressing shear featuring a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating. This model was created to commemorate Kasho's 40th anniversary, with only 140 pairs produced globally (20 available in the UK) . It combines the top-of-the-range Millennium Series craftsmanship with a special DLC coating that enhances performance and durability .

Q: What sizes are available in the Millennium DLC series?
A: The Millennium DLC series is available in 6.0 inches and 6.5 inches offset . The 6.5-inch model is ideal for techniques where a longer shear is preferred, such as scissor-over-comb, while still being agile enough for detailed work .

Q: What steel is used in the Millennium DLC shears?
A: The Millennium DLC shears are made from SG2 (Super Gold 2) sintered steel . This is a premium powder-metallurgical steel produced through sintering technology, where powdered steel is fused under enormous heat and pressure. The result is metal of unmatched durability and purity, which bonds on the molecular level and is extremely resistant to abrasion .

Q: What is the DLC coating and what are its benefits?
A: DLC stands for Diamond-Like Carbon – a nano-composite coating with properties similar to natural diamond. Benefits include: high hardness for exceptional durability, high wear resistance for long-lasting performance, low friction for a smoother cutting experience, high corrosion resistance, and reliable protection against allergies and resistance to chemical compounds .

Q: What is the blade design of the Millennium DLC Shear?
A: The Millennium DLC Shear features the signature "samurai sword" blade design – a sword/hollow ground upper blade combined with a convex/hollow ground lower blade . This design provides precise, powerful cutting performance to handle creative styling techniques.

Q: What pivot system do the Millennium shears use?
A: The Millennium shears feature Kasho's patented Disc Operation System . This sophisticated system consists of an enclosed ball bearing unit, a special spring, and a synthetic disc that ensures uniform pressure and incredibly smooth operation. The enclosed design prevents hair, dust, and chemicals from collecting inside, and no oiling is required .

Q: What is the finish of the Millennium DLC Shears?
A: The Millennium DLC Shears feature a matte black finish resulting from the Diamond-Like Carbon coating, creating a beautiful, eye-catching appearance . This is different from the standard Millennium mirror polish finish.

Q: Does the Millennium DLC Shear have a removable finger rest/tang?
A: Yes. The Millennium's tang is easily removable when you don't want it and easy to reinstall when you do . This allows stylists to customize the shear to their comfort preference.

Q: Is the Millennium DLC Shear right-handed or left-handed?
A: The Kasho Millennium DLC shears are designed for right-handed use .

Q: How many Millennium DLC shears were produced?
A: The Millennium DLC Limited Edition was produced in only 140 pairs globally to commemorate Kasho's 40th anniversary. Only 20 of these were allocated to the UK market .

Q: What is the warranty for the Millennium DLC Shears?
A: Every pair of Millennium shears is backed by Kasho's Lifetime Warranty .

Q: Where are Kasho Millennium shears manufactured?
A: Kasho Millennium shears are handcrafted in Japan .

Q: What are the ergonomic features of the 6.5" Offset DLC model?
A: The 6.5" Offset DLC features an ergonomic offset handle design that provides an intuitive grip and enhances comfort during extended use . The offset position puts the hand, wrist, and shoulder in a more natural alignment, reducing tension and fatigue.

Q: How does the Disc Operation System extend the shear's lifespan?
A: The Disc Operation System features a replaceable synthetic disc between the upper and lower blades that minimizes friction and wear. This, combined with the enclosed ball bearing that prevents debris from affecting movement, gives the Millennium Series a considerably longer lifespan than conventional models .
