The VG10 Scissor Range by Abbfabb

This new and exclusive range of dog grooming scissors are designed for strength, resistance and pure elegance. 

Each dog grooming scissor in this Collection, all crafted from the premium grade steel, VG10 Stainless Steel. 

What are dog grooming scissors made from?

All types of grooming scissors are made from various types of Stainless steel, but the most reliable stainless steel comes from Japan. The most popular Japanese stainless steels for scissors are 440c, VG10(VG-10), VG1 (VG-1) and cobalt ATS314 (ATS-314).

Why have we created an exclusive range of dog grooming scissors?

VG10 is the premium-grade steel that is known for its exceptional sharpness and edge retention. A dog grooming scissor made of VG-10, has a unique formulation of steel with a high carbon content. It contains higher levels of carbon (around 1%) and chromium (around 15%) compared to the 440c and VG1 steel, which gives it superior hardness and wear resistance

VG-10 is considered a “super steel”, because it is designed to maintain sharpness and durability without becoming brittle, a major fault normally associated with exceptionally hard steel.  This quality is ideal when  a dog groomer requires extreme sharpness, as most other steels will not take or keep an edge like VG-10.  This range of scissors will hold an edge three times longer than other steels.

When this type of steel is used to create dog grooming scissors, it is encased in layers of steel providing greater corrosion-resistance, leaving only the “super steel” exposed at the edge for fine and precise cutting for a dog groomer.
