Why Professionals Choose PHOENIX ATS314
PHOENIX is built for professionals who want a compact cutting scissor with premium steel, precise blade control and a distinctive blade profile.
The 5.5-inch format provides excellent manoeuvrability around detailed sections, fringes, shorter styles and precision work where a longer blade can feel less responsive.
Its 52 g weight keeps the scissor light and controlled, while the full convex edge supports smooth cutting through professional salon and barber work.
For stylists who prefer a smaller cutting scissor but still want a premium Japanese steel platform, PHOENIX offers a clear alternative to longer 6.0-inch and 6.5-inch professional scissors.
The PHOENIX Blade Design
The PHOENIX uses a distinctive Sword Dual Mountain blade profile rather than a conventional flat cutting blade.
The blade geometry is designed to provide structural strength through the blade body while retaining the fine cutting characteristics of a full convex edge.
For professionals, this creates a compact 5.5-inch scissor that remains precise during detailed cutting while still feeling stable and substantial in the hand.
Japanese ATS314 Steel Performance
The PHOENIX 5.5" is crafted from Japanese ATS314 Super Cobalt stainless steel with a Rockwell hardness of 62 HRC, giving PHOENIX the premium steel foundation of the ATS314 range.
The PHOENIX specification uses an advanced sub-zero quench process as part of its heat treatment, with the current public steel standardised at 62 HRC.
Combined with the Sword Dual Mountain blade and full convex cutting edge, the ATS314 steel platform supports clean, controlled cutting, dependable edge retention and precision performance across detailed professional techniques.
Correct tension, regular cleaning and oiling, careful storage and professional sharpening all contribute to maintaining long-term cutting performance.
Ergonomic Comfort & Ball-Bearing Tension
The PHOENIX combines an ergonomic offset handle with a Japanese thumb-adjustable tension screw and ball-bearing pivot system.
The offset handle supports natural professional hand positioning, while the ball-bearing system helps create smooth blade movement and allows correct blade tension to be maintained.
Its compact 5.5-inch size and 52 g weight make PHOENIX particularly suitable for professionals who value precise control and manoeuvrability.
