oraimo MasterCut Pro 4500mAh AniShave Smart Clipper is now available at Mascom International for KSh 11,900, built around a 10,000 RPM brushless motor, a 4500mAh 21700 lithium cell rated for up to 5 hours of cordless cutting, and a two-blade set pairing a DLC-coated stainless steel fixed blade with a ceramic moving blade. The oraimo MasterCut Pro carries the model code OCL-580P and arrives as a complete cutting kit with eight guide combs, a charging dock, a 15W adapter and a 2-metre Type-C cable. Stock sits on the shelf at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Barbers running shops in Nairobi CBD, Eastleigh, Umoja, Kayole, Kisumu and Nakuru lose money every time Kenya Power drops the line mid-fade. The oraimo MasterCut Pro answers that problem directly. Its 300 minutes of runtime per charge covers roughly 20 to 30 client cuts before the clipper needs the dock again. Home users trimming their own hair face a different frustration: cheap clippers that pull, snag and heat up after ten minutes. The oraimo MasterCut Pro pairs a ceramic moving blade that runs cooler than an all-steel set with AniShave speed control, which lifts motor speed when the blade meets thick, coarse hair instead of dragging through it.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who stock grooming tools without knowing a rotary motor from a brushless one, Mascom International sells the oraimo MasterCut Pro with the real numbers on the table. Users consistently report that the self-adjusting zero gap arrives correctly set out of the box, removing the blade alignment fiddling that most clippers demand before the first cut. The MasterCut Pro also took a 2025 iF Design Award. Walk into Mascom International on Kimathi Street to hold the clipper before you buy, or order for pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the oraimo MasterCut Pro AniShave Smart Clipper
How long does the oraimo MasterCut Pro battery actually last on one charge?
Up to 5 hours, or 300 minutes, of continuous cutting from the 4500mAh 21700 cell. In a working barbershop that translates to roughly 20 to 30 fades before the clipper returns to the dock, since a typical cut draws 10 to 15 minutes of motor time. A busy Nairobi shop can charge overnight and run the full trading day without a wall socket. Recharging takes 2 hours through the Type-C port at 5V/3A.
Is the oraimo MasterCut Pro strong enough for a working barbershop?
Yes. The brushless motor spins at 10,000 RPM and is rated for 5,000 hours of service life. At 6 hours of cutting per trading day, that maths out to roughly 2 to 3 years in a full-time shop before motor wear becomes a concern. Brushless motors have no carbon brushes to grind down, so speed holds steady as the battery drains rather than fading in the last hour. The 300-minute battery covers a full day of walk-in clients on one charge.
What does AniShave speed control actually do while you are cutting?
AniShave is oraimo's load-sensing chip. It reads how much resistance the blade meets and raises motor speed when it hits a dense or coarse patch, then settles back down on thinner areas. In practice that means fewer snags and less pulling on tightly coiled African hair, which is where budget clippers usually stall and yank. The barber does not press a button or change a setting. The chip reacts on its own, within the same pass, so the cut stays even from the nape to the crown.
Why do DLC and ceramic blades matter compared to standard steel blades?
They stay sharp longer and run cooler. The fixed blade is stainless steel with a DLC coating, a diamond-like carbon layer that resists wear far better than bare steel. The moving blade is ceramic, which generates less friction heat than steel-on-steel. Hot blades are the main cause of the burn and irritation clients complain about during long fade sessions. The blades are also X-shaped and inward-curved, gathering hair toward the centre of the cut instead of letting it scatter sideways.
What haircut lengths can the oraimo MasterCut Pro handle?
Eight guide combs cover 1.5mm, 3mm, 4.5mm, 6mm, 10mm, 13mm, 19mm and 25mm. That range takes you from a near-skin number one through a full 25mm scissor-length cut. Pull the comb off entirely and the self-adjusting zero gap gives you bald fades, clean neckline edges and sharp beard outlines without a separate trimmer. The 1.5mm and 3mm combs handle the low-fade base most Kenyan barbers start with, while 19mm and 25mm suit longer top styles.
Is the oraimo MasterCut Pro worth KSh 11,900 in Kenya's market?
For anyone cutting hair regularly, yes. A KSh 2,000 clipper from a street stall typically runs a brushed motor, a 1,200mAh battery and steel blades that dull inside three months. Replacing it twice a year costs you KSh 4,000 annually plus the client complaints. The MasterCut Pro's 5,000-hour motor, 4500mAh cell and DLC blades are built to a different service life. A barber charging KSh 300 per cut recovers the KSh 11,900 in about 40 heads.
How does the MasterCut Pro compare to a corded barbershop clipper?
You lose the cable and gain 5 hours of freedom. Corded clippers never run flat, but they tie you to one chair and one working socket, which is a real limit when Kenya Power cuts out or when you do house calls in Karen, Runda or Kileleshwa. The MasterCut Pro's 10,000 RPM brushless motor holds speed the way a mains clipper does, so you are not trading cutting strength for portability. The 2-metre cable also lets you cut while charging.
Can I use the oraimo MasterCut Pro on beards and body hair too?
Yes, though it is built first as a head clipper. The zero-gap setting with no comb attached handles beard lines, moustache edges and neckline cleanup. The 1.5mm and 3mm combs work for beard bulk reduction. The ceramic moving blade keeps facial skin from heating up during detail work. For very fine body grooming, oraimo sells a dedicated trimmer in its Master Series kit. Mascom International stocks oraimo grooming accessories alongside the MasterCut Pro at our Kimathi Street counter.
Technical Specifications
Cutting Blade System and Materials
- Fixed blade is stainless steel with a DLC coating, a diamond-like carbon layer that slows wear from daily cutting.
- Moving blade is ceramic, generating less friction heat than steel-on-steel pairs during long sessions.
- X-shaped hair-gathering blade profile pulls hair toward the cut centre, reducing flyaways and stray strands.
- Inward-curved blade geometry concentrates hair into the cutting zone, so fewer passes finish the same patch.
- Self-adjusting zero gap arrives factory-set, so bald fades and edge lines work from the first switch-on.
- Blades are self-sharpening in normal use, holding an edge longer than the plain steel sets on budget clippers.
Motor and Speed Control
- Brushless motor rated at 10,000 RPM, cutting through coarse and tightly coiled hair without pulling.
- 5,000-hour rated motor life covers roughly 2 to 3 years of full-time barbershop use before wear shows.
- AniShave speed control chip senses hair density and raises motor speed on thick patches automatically.
- No carbon brushes to wear down, so cutting speed holds steady as the battery discharges toward empty.
- Brushless design runs quieter than brushed clippers, which matters in small shops and home bathrooms.
- Load response happens within the same pass, keeping cut length even across the whole head.
Battery Capacity and Charging
- 4500mAh 21700 lithium cell at 3.7V, one of the larger capacities in cordless clippers at this price.
- Up to 300 minutes of continuous cutting per charge, roughly 20 to 30 client fades in a shop setting.
- AniFast charging refills the cell fully in 2 hours through the Type-C port at 5V/3A input.
- Bundled 15W adapter matches the 5V/3A input rating, so charging hits the rated 2-hour figure.
- Cordless runtime keeps the clipper working through Kenya Power outages and during house-call appointments.
- LED charging dock lights up on contact and shows charge status without opening an app or reading a manual.
Guide Combs and Cutting Length Range
- Eight guide combs supplied: 1.5mm, 3mm, 4.5mm, 6mm, 10mm, 13mm, 19mm and 25mm.
- 1.5mm and 3mm combs handle the low-fade base that most Kenyan barbers build a cut from.
- 6mm and 10mm combs suit the mid-fade blend zone where the taper transitions upward.
- 19mm and 25mm combs cover longer top styles and full scissor-length maintenance trims.
- Combs clip on and off without tools, so a barber changes length mid-cut in about two seconds.
- Comb-free zero-gap cutting gives beard outlines, neckline edges and skin-close bald fades.
Body Construction and Handling
- Alloy and PC body construction, giving metal rigidity where the hand grips and impact tolerance elsewhere.
- Measures 57 x 177.5 x 46mm, sized for one-handed control through a full fade without wrist strain.
- Dark blue and silver-black finish that hides hair dust and fingerprints better than gloss white bodies.
- Metal body dissipates motor heat, keeping the grip comfortable across back-to-back client sessions.
- 2-metre Type-C cable reaches from most shop sockets to the chair, allowing cutting while plugged in.
- Winner of a 2025 iF Design Award, an independent international recognition of product design quality.
Maintenance and Compatibility
- Lubricant oil included; a drop on the blades after every few cuts keeps the action quiet and smooth.
- Oversized cleaning brush clears trapped hair from between the blade teeth after each client.
- Air blower removes loose hair without touching the blade edge, protecting the DLC coating from scratches.
- Type-C charging means the same cable charges your phone, power bank and clipper on one plug.
- Charging dock keeps the clipper upright and powered between clients, saving counter space in small shops.
- Blade assembly is a standard oraimo MasterCut Pro fitment; replacements are stocked through oraimo Kenya channels.
