Soar

The Soar might have been named somewhere over the English Channel.

One imagines a young pilot in a shearling collar, banking hard through a bitter gray morning with the engine humming like it had a score to settle. The mission was simple enough on paper, which is usually how the difficult ones begin.

The Soar has that same kind of temperament.

Built for action and raised on versatility, it handles dry hair, wet hair, coarse hair, fine hair, and whatever else takes the chair with the kind of confidence that suggests it had been briefed in advance. The blade carries a little more backbone than most, which becomes a useful thing when heavy hair needs taking down with speed and authority.

The edge has enough radius to land a sharp line when the moment calls for one, and enough grace to shape movement without turning the whole affair into a wrestling match. The offset handle keeps the wrist in a more natural position.

Some tools are made for a single trick and a velvet-lined box.

The Soar was made for battle.

And that is usually where the love affair begins.
