Some advice for anyone watching this video and wanting to try this out on an expensive pair of shears, practice with cheap shears first and make sure to buy a high end stone. Your stone doesn't have to be the best of the best or anything, just make sure what you're going to get is a true 8000 grit stone. I.e don't sharpen a $400 pair of shears on a $20 "8000" grit stone because that cheap stone won't be the grit it says it is. Some really nice options would be the Shapton ceramic stones, or a stone from Naniwa ( which I believe is what he's using in the video although I'm not positive it could also be a King).
@@eddyvideostar That's a good question, if we're specifically talking about touching up scissors or shears that are in good condition and just need some touching up (as in they don't have any chips or damage to their cutting surfaces) then for the most part the answer is yes but only up to a point. 8000 grit is generally going to be the best for this application, but that's not to say 6000, 7000, 9000, etc. won't work. You don't want to go with too low of a grit because you can easily end up taking off too much metal and inadvertently changing the angles of the two blades. This will result in scissors that don't cut right anymore. You also don't want to go too high because you can end up just polishing dull blades and not actually making them any sharper. That said, it is significantly better to go too high instead of too low, because you can always just lower the grit you're using bit by bit until you find one that works well. Whereas if you start too low it's easy to end up in the situation I described above and often there isn't a way to fix that once it happens. As far as sand paper goes, it can be a great tool for sharpening as long as you can get the grit you need. I often use sandpaper glued to wood to sharpen knives and axes in the field. Specifically talking about sharpening scissors, then as long as you can find a high enough grit it'll work just fine. I wouldn't go lower than 6000 grit though at least not to start. Now I do want to say that my expertise in sharpening is vastly skewed more towards knives and axes rather than scissors, I really only sharpen scissors once in a while. So, while I personally wouldn't go lower than 6000, someone with more experience with scissors might be able to give you advice about using a lower grit. Because this reply isn't already too long, I do want to reiterate that the above advice is really only for scissors and shears. If we're talking about knives or other blades that don't have to interface with another blade at a specific angle then it's fairly hard to actually ruin them beyond repair.
I'm a Barber & when I was in school the instructor said to always get a professional sharpener to do the shears. But for a DIY that's a great.job. I'm definitely going to try this on my C-MON Saber Shears.
Great video. Never sharpened scissors before. Watched your vid, tried the wet tissue test, would not cut period, resulting in nothing but binding. Sharpened on a stone following the existing angle. wet tissue test, snip snip snip pass!ed!! Thanks,
@@Slouworkershut your mouth. If bro wants to learn and not rely on someone else then instead of telling him to avoid it completely like a wanker better advice would be to tell him to practice on cheap shears first and then when confident in sharpening ability to then start helping out his daughter. But the mindset of just flat out stop trying to help his daughter in what little way he can wether it be sharpening her shears instead to just let someone else do it is sad, pathetic, and lacks enthusiasm for learning.
Thanks for this tip, the cutting of wet tissue helped me determine which of my scissors need sharpening, I ended up with 8 slightly dull scissors. I used a 6000 grit King Deluxe whetstone and it worked great. Now I can enjoy cutting hair precisely.
Thanks! Ive watched several videos and didnt kno I should pull the scisssors away after cutting. I was reopening them lol. Now I feel confident that my scissors are sharp.
thanks this helped a lot my cousin is a stylist she asked me to sharpen her scissors, said she paid a guy to do it last week but he screwed up big time. anyways I sharpen lots of knives but wasn't sure how to approach these expensive scissors, so thanks they turned out great
Very informative yet I am dealing with scissors bent. In my bathroom mirror, two lights flank the sides called pendant lamps. At 6'3" my wife has her mirrors adjusted to I see concrete or the rear seat belts. But, she re-hung a lamp on a chain, son stepped on scissors and bent them very slightly. I have been working on cars since the 1970's, an ASE Master since 78, so files, wet-stones are in my tool boxes, as retired. So looking for daylight between the blades and good info on sharpening.

Maybe it is the farm kid in me as the oldest who are the Original Recyclers. Just learning! Thanks! DK, ASE Master Tech since 78. Retired.
You used the scissors backwards the firs time, the big screw was facing left, when you did the first test and the screw was to the right the second test.
Sometimes the scissor body is bent ... or needs to be bent so that after sharpening the scissors can properly close after the metal has been removed. I'm assuming there must be some kind of tool to do this properly without ruining them.
Greg McCormack I would try evening out the pressure to the tip. You may be exerting the pressure unevenly concentrated at the juncture of the two blades.
hello! thanks so muc for the info, how o you sharpen the serrated sciccors? the barber i went to had a pair that looke like a seriese of small scallops
So with these shears, there's a slight convex to the edge profile? Prior to coming here, I saw another youtuber say you should only send barber's scissors/hair shears to a professional for sharpening... he then proceeded to sharpen a pair of general use scissors by moving the stone down the edge.... seemed like a recipe for an inconsistent angle to me!
I have been sharpening my barbers scissors for a few years now. He told me that I do a better job than when he used to pay $35 per scissor by a professional. If you look carefully I turn the scissor a bit to give it a convex grind and I only use my 8000 grit stone for barber scissor.
Ahhh, essentially similar to a technique for knives with convex edges. Convex seems more intuitive than fixed angles, but some folk seem to flourish sharpening things with fixed angles. Different strokes, wha?
To further clarify, I know little about barber shears, but I do know that regular knife sharpener will not work. They'd screw them up because they're built to make a V edge, and won't properly get the whole blade. It would be a mess.
i saw you do one side do you do both side of shears..there are a few whetstones 8000 grits one is by kota is that the one you use. from amazon? and do oyu spray soap and water on the stone or just plain water
Curious when you wet the first tissue, you cut and pulled on the dry side. Then on the second tissue you cut through the wet side? Anyone else notice??
Yes ..I use a 1500 grit to condition my stone which is exactly like the one here..I'm Scizorman New Zealand..under the tap I give it a light fluff up after every use when I'm washing my stone.i have a machine and setter aswell..
@@syndicateproductionstarana4925 Please explain your methods a bit more. Do you strop scissors after the 8000 grit whetstone sharpening? Is stropping like honing knives? Why don't they strop knives too? What does the 1500 grit do - rough up the 8000 grit whetstone to remove metal dust? How is this done - under the tap?
@@mjremy2605 You can strop knives to get the burr off, I do it myself and it gives my knives a much better edge than just honing on my 5000 grit Naniwa whetstone. And with 1500 grit you could remove metal dust that is put into the pores of the stone while sharpening and also flatten it a bit after using it. Usually you would use a nagura or dressing stone for that. As to if they strop the scissors after the 8000 grit stone.. it looks like they don't and maybe that's because closing the scissors could potentially push off the burr already and so maybe stropping isn't necessary but I would say it can't hurt to strop it if you can properly maintain the angle that you used when sharpening
You dont want to strop scissors. The leather is meant to give, smoothening a knife's edge angle. With scissors, you want that edge angle as harsh as possible.
@@jrowe9301 I actually never knew that. My family is full of barbers and beauticians so I was considering picking up sharpening as they spend a lot on sharpening scissors. Thanks for the advice!
Where did you hear about the wet tissue test? I just tried this with a pair of $20 craft scissors I sharpened recently and it passes just fine. Given the relatively low quality of these scissors (relative to barber shears) and my extremely minimal experience sharpening scissors I question how much of a test this really is.
You can get cheap metal and expensive metal just as sharp. Where the expensive ones shine is how long the metal keeps an edge, hardness of the metal (heat treating) and corrosive resistance. That's the big difference.
@@muaythaiforme That's not entirely true. Some cheap steels are an absolute bitch to sharpen, and you'll never get them properly sharp. Great steels tend to be ridiculously easy to sharpen. Good steel can get just as sharp as great steels but it generally requires considerable skill on the part of the sharpener.
@@rockets4kids great steels usually have a considerable hardness to them. Which causes chipping and pitting cause they're brittle. It's difficult and time consuming to rid of those burrs and make a sharp straight angle again. Look up steels like elmax, M390 and CTS-204. Very difficult to sharpen
@@muaythaiforme It is the cheap/soft steels which form tenacious burrs which are difficult to remove. Steels like elmax, M390 and CTS-204 are *easy* to sharpen. The people having problems sharpening them aren't using the correct stones.
I asked my barber what he does when his blades become dull. He says most all barbers buys disposable scissors so I figure I should learn to sharpen them eh :) Good instructional video here, thanks
I suppose the scissors they buy must be under 100 bucks, because I have read people's reviews on kasho scissors and they said they used them for 5 years and didn;t need to sharpen them in that period of time.
The angle must be precise. This is not precise. This is how you hone the ride, or the underside of the shear with them taken apart. You must also keep your stone flat by honing the stone on a flat surface which there are a few different ways to do.
I have just purchased an 8000/10000 grit whetstone for my hair scissors only. Nothing sharpens like a whetstone, wow my kitchen knives are lethal now! So be careful with knives and scissors guys because they will be sharper than sharp!!!!
I appreciate the cautious approach taken here. 1.. Fine Stone. 2. Pointing out that cheap crap stones are, well, cheap crap. I realize that being barber scissors there is likely no ride line, but why was the inside not flattened with just a few light strokes? BTW - I sharpen shears and scissors with both a flat hone or by hand as appropriate. If I may make a positive suggestion. While the wet tissue test is good, use cheap single-ply toilet paper for the most stringent test, followed by hair. I got a $40 mannequin head with lots of hair off Amazon. You can get them cheaper, but I wanted one a little bit better.
Very vague about the "angle" description.."kinda" in an "instructional" video means you really shouldn't be doing instructional videos..does more harm than good.
Then how do you sharpen them? Please tell us. I have to fix my scissors fast. Тогда как их затачивать? Пожалуйста скажи нам. Мне нужно быстро поправить ножницы.
I'm sure you sharpened them just fine, but if my shear sharpener cut anything but human hair with my shears I'd be upset. Because they are not for cutting napkins, neck strips, paper towels, dog hair, just human hair .
All sharpeners remove the burr by cutting tissue paper of one sort or another. One has to have a constant material for the length of the blade. It will be one cut to remove the burr. I then test on cling film(Saran Wrap). If the scissors cut cling film cleanly, they'll cut any hair.

Won't that affect the cut? Upside down to show the "before" pull cut, the upside right to show the "after" clean cuts.

Yes, it does affect the way the shear will cut.
You're not clear or expansive enough about the angle to be positioning the edge as you work.
