Avanti Cobalt 8.75" Curved

The Avanti Cobalt 8.75" Curved shear is the premium choice for professional groomers working with large breeds and requiring extended reach for efficient curved shaping. Crafted from the best Japanese cobalt alloy steel, this shear features narrow but strong blades with the beautiful hama-guri shaped edge that delivers exceptional cutting performance through the thickest, most challenging coats. At 8.75 inches, this is the longest curved shear in the Avanti Cobalt line, providing maximum reach for working on large Poodles, Portuguese Water Dogs, and other substantial breeds where curved shaping is essential. The comfortable designer handles fit like a glove, with ergonomic contouring that reduces hand strain even during extended use on multiple large dogs. The non-fail Japanese click thumb screw adjuster ensures reliable tension control that won't fail during critical competition grooming, while the tension-balancing spring maintains smooth, effortless cutting action regardless of coat density or cutting angle. This curved shear is particularly valued for its ability to efficiently shape large rounded body areas, create flowing curved toplines, and blend dimensional furnishings on large breeds. The premium cobalt construction offers superior edge retention and durability, making this an investment tool that maintains professional cutting performance through years of demanding use.
