The Clipit Lava Stripping Knife is designed for professional groomers who demand precision, grip control, and clean coat removal. Ideal for shaping, defining, and maintaining harsh, wire, and broken coats while preserving natural texture and colour.
What Makes the Lava Stripping Knife Different?
Stripping is about removing the correct guard hairs — not cutting, not thinning, not damaging.
The Clipit Lava Stripping Knife allows you to:
✔ Remove dead guard hairs cleanly
✔ Maintain harsh coat texture
✔ Enhance natural colour depth
✔ Sculpt breed-specific outlines
✔ Improve regrowth quality
✔ Reduce coat softening caused by clipping
The textured “Lava” grip design improves control and reduces hand fatigue during longer hand-stripping sessions.
