Avanti Cobalt 8.75" Straight

The Avanti Cobalt 8.75" Straight shear is the longest straight blade in the Avanti Cobalt line, designed for professional groomers working with large breeds and requiring maximum reach for efficient body work. 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 thick, dense coats. At 8.75 inches, this shear provides maximum reach for working on large Poodles, Doodles, and other substantial breeds where efficient body work is essential. The comfortable designer handles fit like a glove, with careful ergonomic design 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 maintains optimal performance throughout demanding grooming sessions. The tension-balancing spring provides smooth, consistent cutting action that reduces fatigue and improves cutting efficiency on large body areas. This straight shear is particularly valued for its ability to efficiently trim large body areas, establish long foundation lines with minimal passes, create smooth even finishes on substantial breeds, and maintain consistent cutting performance through extended use. The premium cobalt construction offers exceptional durability and edge retention, making this a professional investment tool that delivers reliable performance for years.
