GE Black Pearl Strait Shear 8.5 in

Geib's Black Pearl Strait Shear 8.5In is a professional straight shear at an 8.5-inch length, part of the Black Pearl line within Geib's shear collection. It's filed under Pro Equipment & Tools and Shears in the Pets category, built for grooming professionals rather than casual home trims. Where a longer straight shear favors coverage, an 8.5-inch blade like this one is a size many groomers reach for when they want more control and maneuverability without giving up a straight cutting edge. It's a dedicated single-style shear: no swap-outs, no combo attachments, just the Black Pearl name on a straight blade at this specific size. If you already carry a longer straight shear, an 8.5-inch option gives you a second length to reach for depending on the job in front of you.

An 8.5-inch straight shear from Geib's Black Pearl line, sized for control on detail work.

• Straight blade profile, built for everyday trimming, blocking, and finishing passes
• 8.5-inch length, a size groomers often pick when they want more control on tighter work
• Carries the Black Pearl name within Geib's professional shear lineup
• Filed under Pro Equipment & Tools in Geib's catalog, built with working groomers in mind, not hobbyist trimming kits
• A straight shear like this typically works alongside curved and thinning shears in a full shear roll
• Shorter blade length than Geib's larger straight shears, useful for close, controlled passes
• Straight-edge design suited to clean lines on legs, backs, and other flat-plane areas
• Geib branding on one dedicated shear, at one blade style and one length
• Sized at 8.5 inches specifically, so you know exactly what's arriving before you order
• A focused pickup for groomers who already know they want a straight blade at this length

If your kit needs a straight shear that favors control over sheer coverage, the Black Pearl Strait Shear 8.5In from Geib is built for that role. Add it to a rotation with your curved and thinning shears, and keep it as the piece you reach for on detail-focused blocking and finishing work where a shorter blade earns its keep. It's sold on its own, so you can add exactly one Black Pearl shear at exactly one length, without committing to a larger set.
