Heavier in comparison to the Z1, the center ridge is built up for power and provides a durable cutting experience. The ACRO TYPE-Z2 is crafted with a Kengata (center built up), convex blade designed to increase cutting power while providing extended blade durability.
Also created with Nano Powder Metal (extremely small particles that leave for 0% impurities when looked at under a microscope ), makes this a hard metal unlike any other in the market. This latest high-tech development in scissor production uses powder metallurgy to produce scissors of unprecedented strength and sharpness. While other companies claim to use ” powder ” or ” Nano Powder Metal “, it is important to ask questions such as ” where is your metal researched ” where is it sourced ” and confirm the validity of these claims. Mizutani has and always will be committed to quality over anything. You can find the information pertaining to the research it has taken as well as what Nano Powder Metal® is and is not here.
Design Note: The Z2 has a thicker blade ( compared to the Z1 ) when looking at it from the side. It does come to a fine point making it a good smaller size shear ( 5.5 & “6.0 ), yet this model is designed to be a blunt power tool and is favored amongst hairdressers who prefer longer blades. The blade like the Z1 is curved, making it a hybrid shear worth considering. Z2 lovers tend to work on coarse thick hair, Z1 users mainly cut using smaller sections with a style that screams pinpoint accuracy.
