How Our Sharpening Process Protects Your Tools
Professional sharpening is about more than making an edge “sharp.” It’s about restoring how the shear was designed to perform.
- Edge restoration matched to the shear’s design
- Alignment and ride-line correction
- Tension adjustment for smooth action
- Test cutting before return
This is especially important for advanced techniques like slide cutting and dry cutting, where shear performance needs to be smooth and predictable.

Signs Your Shears Need Sharpening
- Hair bends or pushes instead of cutting cleanly
- Shears feel rough, grabby, or “sticky”
- Slide cutting becomes difficult or inconsistent
- You notice increased hand fatigue during cutting
- Lines and finishes don’t look as clean as they used to
If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to get your tools serviced before poor performance starts affecting your results.

Most working professionals benefit from sharpening every 3–6 months, depending on:
- How often you cut
