Before your next sharpening...

If your shears were badly damaged by another sharpening service please set realistic expectations when having them correctively re-sharpened and refurbished. Honing a pristine edge on a scissor with only half a blade does not make it new! Always give new and newly sharpened scissors a few light hair cuts to run the edges in. When cutting with scissor over comb, cut about 1/4 inch from the comb to avoid accidentally damaging scissors by cutting into the comb.
Shear Integrity does not wish to malign honest and reputable sharpening services. Shear Integrity does not wish to perpetuate or be part of the problem.
