Designed for the long climb.

Named after Sir Edmund Hillary, one of the first two people confirmed to stand on the summit of Mount Everest, the Hillary was inspired by a simple idea: when you're pushing further, the equipment in your hands matters.

The Hillary features our most ergonomic handle design yet — sculpted around the natural shape of your hand to stay comfortable and controlled from nearly any cutting angle. Combined with an extremely lightweight build, it allows the shear to move with your hand rather than making your hand work around the shear.

Available in 5.5" and 6.0", the Hillary gives you the choice between compact precision and a little more reach without sacrificing the ergonomic feel that defines it.

Whether you're working low, elevating sections, cutting over the comb or changing hand position throughout the day, the Hillary is designed to feel natural wherever the haircut takes you.

Hillary didn't reach the summit by standing still. He adapted to every angle the mountain put in front of him. This shear was built with the same philosophy. Sculpted for your hand. Built for the climb.
