Why Professionals Chose the EVOLVE Midnight Black 6.5"
Not every professional prefers the same cutting length.
The EVOLVE Midnight Black 6.5" was designed for hairdressers and barbers who wanted additional blade reach while retaining the ergonomic feel and cutting control of the EVOLVE platform.
The longer 6.5-inch cutting length is particularly useful for:
- scissor-over-comb
- barbering
- longer cutting sections
- blunt cutting
- larger sections
- precision perimeter work
- efficient professional salon cutting
Its balanced 55 g weight, ergonomic offset handle and Sword Mountain blade profile were developed to provide longer-blade efficiency without making the scissor feel unnecessarily bulky.
The EVOLVE Design Story
The EVOLVE Series represents the continuing development of iCandy's professional scissor design philosophy.
Building on the earlier ALL STAR design direction, EVOLVE combines Japanese VG10 steel, ergonomic offset handles, ball-bearing tension systems and a refined Sword Mountain blade profile.
The Midnight Black finish gives this 6.5-inch model a darker contemporary identity while retaining the longer-blade cutting purpose of the EVOLVE platform.
Japanese VG10 Steel & Blade Performance
The EVOLVE Midnight Black 6.5" was crafted from Japanese VG10 steel with a Rockwell hardness of 60–61 HRC, providing the premium steel foundation used across the EVOLVE platform.
Its 76 mm convex cutting edge and Sword Mountain blade profile provide additional reach for larger sections, barbering and scissor-over-comb while maintaining a controlled professional cutting action.
The combination of Japanese VG10 steel, convex edge geometry and correct blade tension supports clean cutting performance and dependable edge retention when the scissor is properly maintained.
Regular cleaning, oiling, correct tension, careful storage and professional sharpening all contribute to maintaining cutting performance over time.
Ergonomic Control
The EVOLVE Midnight Black 6.5" combines a longer cutting blade with an ergonomic offset handle designed to support comfortable professional use.
The Japanese tension screw and ball-bearing system support smooth blade movement, while the balanced 55 g weight helps keep the longer scissor controlled in the hand.
For professionals moving repeatedly between clipper work, scissor-over-comb and longer cutting sections, the extra reach can reduce unnecessary blade strokes while preserving precision.
Best Cutting Techniques
The EVOLVE Midnight Black 6.5" was particularly well suited to:
- scissor-over-comb
- barbering
- long-section cutting
- blunt cutting
- layering
- precision perimeter work
- dry cutting
- slide cutting
- club cutting
- larger cutting sections
Who Was the EVOLVE Midnight Black 6.5" Best For?
- professional barbers
- hairdressers who prefer longer cutting scissors
- stylists regularly performing scissor-over-comb
- professionals cutting larger sections
- hairdressers working with medium to long hair
- professionals wanting a darker Midnight Black finish
- apprentices who already preferred a longer cutting blade

Midnight Black Titanium Nano Colour Coating
The Midnight Black Titanium Nano Colour Coating gives this EVOLVE 6.5-inch scissor its gloss-black professional appearance.
