Sale A great set of trimming scissors is a necessity: for this reason Beard & Bates has designed, developed and hand-crafted some of the best shears money can buy. Our 1878 Black Label Shears were inspired by classic 19th Century grooming scissors which were prized possessions carried by cavalry commanders who favored long and intimidating facial hair. Taking a cue from the fact that Cavalry soldiers' tools of the trade were carbines, pistols and sabers, we created a unique embossed genuine leather holster/scabbard to complement these fine shears. The best modern steel is Japanese, and the1878 Black Label Shears are crafted from the finest J2 420 Japanese steel and heat treated to Rockwell Hardness of 55-56. The scissors are 4.5" in total, currently TSA approved for travel, and the blades are razor sharp convex edge blades, which are hollow ground to make precision cuts, and require no resharpening. This quality level is on par with profession hair cutting scissors which cost $250-$500. The traditional ergonomic design enables you to put your ring finger through the hole, use the two indentations to rest your index and middle fingers, all while allowing your pinky to sit atop the brass finger rest. This provides one much more fluid control when trimming. It had become historically common for Calvary forces to wear imposing facial hair, whether it be long mustaches or full beards, so as to appear more imposing to the enemy, and so specific appearance was an important "weapon." Weapon or not, your facial hair will benefit from this quality holstered set of shears.

About Us

OUR STORY

Beard & Bates offers uncommon and unique products that are steeped in both historical significance and iconoclastic vision. Beard & Bates is a modern company that carries on the work began by two different American artisan families: the Beard family of North Carolina and the Bates family of Virginia. Both families historically became known for their creativity, inventions, ideas and products that defied the expected.  Beard & Bates seeks to recreate the 19th Century beard oil, combs, fashion, products and sundries that the Beard family became known for, while adding the iconoclastic American vision and ideas that characterized the Bates family. We are neither retro nor contemporary but desire to produce what is universally alluring.

Beard & Bates provides products for the Life in Rebellion.
