Lupo Scissors are hand-made from Japanese 440C stainless steel, built exclusively for the Canadian grooming market. 440C is the industry's workhorse alloy — hard enough to hold a convex edge through heavy use, soft enough to re-sharpen cleanly for years of service. The offset handle positions your thumb and fingers in a natural grip, which matters when you're on your eighth dog of the day.
About this thinner
Forty-eight teeth at 7" puts this shear firmly in blender territory — each cut removes roughly 20–30% of the hair it catches, which is exactly what you want for finishing passes. It's the tool that erases the line between clipped and scissored sections, softens the transition from body to leg, and cleans up a face without the risk of leaving a visible step.
If your current thinning shear leaves tracks or feels too aggressive on finish work, a 48-tooth is the upgrade. It's not meant to move a lot of hair at once — it's meant to make the last 10% of the groom look like the dog was born that way.
