A hair clipper has a cutter head on the front end of a housing. The cutter head includes a toothed stationary blade and a toothed movable blade reciprocating on the stationary blade in hair shearing engagement between individual toothed edges thereof. The toothed edge of the stationary blade is tapered to have a thickness narrower toward its leading edge along an edgewise direction thereof. The stationary blade is slidable in a direction perpendicular to the reciprocating direction thereof, for varying a cut length of the hairs to be sheared between the movable and stationary blades. An adjustor handle is slidably mounted on the housing and linked to the movable blade for effecting the sliding movement thereof. A latch is provided to latch the adjustor handle in position for fixing the cut length. A release knob projects on a portion of the handle to be accessible by a finger of the user manipulating the handle. The release knob is actuated upon being pressed to unlatch the latch means for permitting the slidable movement of the adjustor handle and the movable blade in the direction of adjusting the cut length.
