We carry Mustache Scissors from Germany by Dreiturm, Dovo and Wasa of Solingen. These scissors are for keeping the mustache or beard trimmed. They also aid in keeping the beard and/or mustache in good shape. Corrugation will usually be on the edge of one blade. The corrugation if this instance means finely serrated and it helps hold the hair in place which will result in a more accurate cut. Heimerdinger imports these scissors from Solingen Germany. Also, Solingen is known as the blade capital of the world.
Mustache Scissors from Germany made by Dreiturm, Dovo and Wasa of Solingen are small. Because they are small they can easily maneuver around the nose and lips. Some may have slightly rounded tips for safe cutting. The rounded points on the blades also lend themselves to trimming nose or ear hairs. Additionally, these mustache scissors are smaller in length. The small size is also good for beard trimming.
One sign of a quality scissors is forging.Forging makes the metal stronger so the shears are strong, but not bulky. They will stay also stay sharp longer. Some are stainless steel. They will not rust in moist conditions. However, they might be more properly termed “stain resistant,”. They could possibly stain under greatly adverse conditions. The stains are not rust and will not affect their quality performance. Some scissors are Nickel plated and this will be noted in the description.
Quality scissors like Mustache Scissors from Germany will have a screw. They will be adjustable. Equally important, one step in the sharpening process is to take them apart. This basically allows for the re-manufacturing of the scissors. The number of steps to manufacture a pair of scissors is 176. Carl Heimerdinger performs many of these steps n the sharpening operation
