Sharpening and adjusting scissors

<< < (2/3) > >>

Take 'em to Joann's Fabrics, or a dog show where there maybe a vendor sharpening scissors -dog people like sharp scissors, so do their dogs!  The rotary cutters are good, too, that is what the pros use!

DC, Bill one of my friends brought me a Scissor sharpener she got at the fabric store, she bought her a new one and gave the old one to me, I will try and get a picture and name, you just slide both cutting edges in and work a little push handle, tried it on 4 old pairs and worked like a champ. :)

DC:
I'd appreciate that :D

Pappy:
Here it is DC. Works great on regular and small scissors. I did sharpen a big pair I have yesterday by hand, just took my time with a stone to start and then with a fine steel, don't know why I hadn't done it before, it cut like butter.I think you just need to be careful to keep the angle and not take off to much. Anyway hope this helps, nothing worse than dull scissors, knives or tools of any kind for that matter.  :)

DC:
