Almost every scissor website or scissor man will spend a great deal of effort trying to convince
you, the potential customer, just how qualified they are as a sharpener and/or salesman. They may also offer
targeted tips or articles on how scissors are made. This information is usually linked the selection of
scissors that they sell. This is a common marketing technique, but it does little more than confuse an
already uneasy customer. I hope that these articles will help you identify key words and phrases when shopping
for scissors so that you can get a feel for the price, quality, and the cutting technique that the scissor
was designed to be used for.
** In our education series, I hope that the information offered will be helpful to you in deciding how to
begin the selection process for the scissor you need to do your job more effectively and what questions to
ask the scissor man who wants to sharpen your expensive scissors. This will make it much easier to browse
a website or deal with a scissor man to decide whether or not that company has a scissor or service that you
can use. Trying to sort thru a websites scissor selection or a scissor mans porfolio collection is confusing
at best.
** Our Sharpening class and machine are world class. Sharpline's 14 point sharpening system is taught in a 2 day training session. Learn how to sharpen convex edges with the
