Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser

Hand-finished & inspected at Matt Grumley’s bench, Lake Wendouree.

Built for all-day cutting and texturising in perfect step — a matched ATS-314 kit.

Who it suits Ideal for stylists who cut and texture all day and want one matched kit instead of two separate purchases. Pairs an Apex cutting scissor with its matched texturiser, both made from the same ATS-314 steel at 58-60 HRC and hand-finished on the same bench so the two tools share identical tension and feel.

Think this might be more scissor than you need? Say so. A pair that fits your hand cuts better than a dearer pair that does not, and the cheapest professional cutter we make is $250. Every model side by side — steel, measured hardness and price — or ring 0487 391 647 and Matt will tell you if a cheaper one does your job.

Not on one of those runs? You still get free shipping Australia-wide, a phone fitting with Matt before you commit, 30 days to send it back unused, and the lifetime manufacturing warranty.

Here is what to ask a local sharpener instead.

Blade length

Edge
ConvexThe outer face curves gently out to the cutting edge, so the blade slices through hair instead of pushing it. That is a different thing from the hollow ground on the inner face, the shallow relief that keeps the two blades meeting cleanly rather than rubbing flat. Every part of a scissor, named.

The full brief

The Apex Bundle is the complete all-day kit — cut and texture, in perfect step. An Apex cutting scissor and matched texturiser for the stylist who cuts and blends all day. Both forged from Japanese ATS-314 and hand-finished on the same bench, so cutting and texturising share the same tension, the same glide, the same feel — switch between them without ever breaking your rhythm.

This is the kit you build a whole day around: matched, balanced, and tuned to feel like one hand from your first client to your last. And as a set, it’s a real saving over buying the pieces separately.

From Matt Grumley, Australian scissorsmith: “I build my bundles as a matched set on purpose. When your cutter and your blender come off the same bench, your hands stop thinking about the tool and start thinking about the hair.”

Every Apex Bundle includes

  • A matched Apex cutting scissor and Apex texturiser
  • Your choice of screw colour — Black, Blue, Indigo, Pink, Pearl, Magenta, Silver, Black Diamante, Blue Diamante, Pink Diamante, Red Diamante
  • Both pieces hand-finished at Matt’s Lake Wendouree bench and inspected by Matt before they ship — no batch passes
  • Presentation case
  • Personal sizing guidance — call Bec on 0487 391 647
  • Free shipping Australia-wide
  • The ShearGenius Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty — covering defects in materials and workmanship

Made by a real Australian scissorsmith — not a marketing company reselling someone else’s steel. ShearGenius carries a 4.9-star average across 3,000+ verified reviews, with more than 40,000 scissors in stylists’ hands since 2007 and over 100,000 sharpened on the bench.

Own it from 10% today, then 20 easy weekly payments — zero interest with SlicePay.

Sizes 5.5″ · 6.0″ · 6.5″ · Japanese ATS-314 · screw colours Black, Blue, Indigo, Pink, Pearl, Magenta, Silver, Black Diamante, Blue Diamante, Pink Diamante, Red Diamante · forged in Japan, hand-finished in Lake Wendouree, VIC.

ShearGenius — Australia’s most trusted scissorsmith since 2007. The scissors stylists actually recommend.

What that means at the chair

  • Offset ergonomic handle — your thumb and wrist stop doing all the work, so the last client of the day feels like the first
  • ATS-314 at 58-60 HRC — an edge that holds its bite between services instead of fading a few weeks in
  • Single bearing flat pivot — the tension stays where you set it, so the glide feels the same all day
  • Cutter and texturiser finished on the same bench — swapping between them mid-cut doesn't change how your hand reads the tool

Who it’s not for: If you rarely texturise and only need a cutting scissor, skip the bundle — buy the cutter on its own and put the difference toward a sharpen.

Steel, edge life and serviceability

Both blades in the Apex Bundle are ground from Japanese ATS-314 at 58–60 HRC — one steel across the kit, so both pieces can be serviced together. Each pair is resharpenable for decades and covered by the ShearGenius Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Full steel breakdown: the hairdressing scissor steel guide.

Why a real scissorsmith finishes every pair

Matt Grumley has cut hair since 1990 — and over one hundred thousand scissors across Matt’s bench tells you exactly what a working edge needs. Every ShearGenius scissor is forged in Japan from premium Japanese steel, then hand-finished at Matt’s bench in Lake Wendouree, Victoria: the Wendouree Finish — thirty checks before any scissor ships. No batch passes.

That’s why we can guarantee it for life.

Your tools could be tax-deductible

Professional scissors are tools of trade. If you run your own business with an ABN, eligible businesses may be able to deduct the purchase under the ATO’s instant asset write-off rules. Employed hairdressers can generally claim tools of trade too. Keep your receipt.

This is general information only and doesn’t consider your circumstances. Speak to your accountant or registered tax adviser about your eligibility.

Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser — common questions

What size Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser should I choose?

The Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser is available in 5.5, 6.0, 6.5. A shorter blade gives you more control for detail work, precision line work and cutting in the hand. A longer blade covers more hair in a single pass, which suits scissor-over-comb and faster sectioning. If you are between two sizes, take the shorter one for detail and the longer one for volume.

What steel is the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser made from?

The Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser is made from ATS-314. The steel is forged by our specialist partner factories in Japan, and Matt Grumley hand-finishes, tensions and inspects every pair at his bench in Lake Wendouree, Victoria before it ships.

Who is the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser for?

Ideal for stylists who cut and texture all day and want one matched kit instead of two separate purchases. Pairs an Apex cutting scissor with its matched texturiser, both made from the same ATS-314 steel at 58-60 HRC and hand-finished on the same bench so the two tools share identical tension and feel.

Where should I buy the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser in Australia?

Buy the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser directly from ShearGenius at sheargenius.com.au. ShearGenius is an Australian scissorsmith that sells direct at wholesale pricing with no middlemen, so you are buying from the person who hand-finishes, tensions and services the scissor rather than from a reseller. Shipping within Australia is free.

Can I talk to someone before I buy the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser?

Yes. Call ShearGenius on 0487 391 647 and Bec will pass your message straight to Matt Grumley, the scissorsmith who hand-finishes every pair. Matt calls back personally, usually the same day, and will ask how you cut before recommending anything.

Is the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser covered by a warranty?

Yes. Every ShearGenius scissor carries our Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty, which covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the scissor. It does not cover ordinary edge wear, accidental damage, misuse or neglect, and sharpening is a separate paid service.

Can I return the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser if I change my mind?

Yes. Contact us within 30 days and return the scissors unused and in their original packaging, subject to our Refund Policy. This does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Can ShearGenius sharpen the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser later?

Yes. Matt sharpens on the road as a paid service across Victoria and Tasmania, plus Mount Gambier and Millicent. Sharpening is not included with a purchase, and it is a separate service from the Lifetime Manufacturing Warranty.

Can I pay for the Apex Bundle: Scissor + Texturiser in instalments?

Yes. SlicePay is our own interest-free plan: 10% today, then 20 weekly payments. Choose your size and screw colour first, then apply.

Does ShearGenius make a left-handed version?

ShearGenius builds genuinely left-handed scissors with truly reversed blades, not right-handed scissors with mirrored handles. You can see the left-handed range at sheargenius.com.au/collections/left-handed-scissors.
